Question

What type of change you want in yourself as a teacher to cater the need of the changing society and learner? Explain with at least two examples.

Answer 1

HEY THERE!
1. AS A TEACHER MY FISRT AND MAIN FOCUS WILL BE ON RECOGNISING AND IMMEDIATELY ADAPTING TO THE NEEDS OF A STUDENT WITH LEARNING DISABILIES LIKE DYSLEXIA.
2. SECOND AND MOST NEEDED QUALITY EVERY TEACHER SHOULD HAVE IS PATIENCE. HENCE, I WOULD ALWAYS BE CALM AND PATIENT WITH THE STUDENTS AND TRY TO ANSWER EVERY QUESTION HE/SHE ASKS, AS NOT EVERYONE IS A BORN-EINSTEIN.
3. NEXT, I WILL ALWAYS MOTIVATE MY STUDENTS TO THINK CREATIVELY AND NOT CARE AT ALL ABOUT EXAMS AND MARKS AS MARKS ARE NOT EVERYTHING. YOU CAN GET THEM BY CHEATING. BUT TRUE KNOWLEDGE CANNOT BE GOT BY CHEATING. AND ALSO BECAUSE SUICIDES DUE TO EXAM TENSION ARE ON THE RISE.
4. ANOTHER POINT, I WILL ALWAYS TRY TO BE MORE THAN A TEACHER- MORE APPROACHABLE, I MEAN. I WILL STRIVE TO MAKE THE STUDENTS THINK OF ME AS A PERSON WHO IS ALWAYS THERE TO LISTEN TO THEIR PROBLEMS, WHATEVER THEY ARE ABOUT. THIS IS BECAUSE MANY STUDENTS, INCLUDING ME HAVE THOUGHTS AND PROBLEMS THEY ARE SCARED OF REVEALING TO ANYONE AND KEEP THINKING AND WORRYING ABOUT THEM. SUCH STUDENTS WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO CONCENTRATE ON STUDIES AND AGAIN, SUCH CASES ARE ALSO ON THE RISE AS WE HEAR EVERYDAY OF "DEPRESSED" STUDENTS.

I HOPE YOU FIND THE ANSWER USEFUL! DO LET ME KNOW YOUR OPINIONS ON IT.
