1. Reading.Look through what students think makes a great teacher. Do you share their thoughts? Have you found common traits? Discuss them with your partner.

"What makes a great teacher is being kind. The teacher should also be enthusiastic when teaching... If a teacher doesn't believe in what he or she is saying, then the students won't either. A great teacher is also patient and cares about the students well-being."

"There are so many types of teachers out there that you don't know who's great, decent or plain horrible. In my opinion, as long as they can get lessons into our heads without making us fall asleep they're good enough."

When I think back to my favorite teachers, they always had specific traits that made them great. You have to understand the age you teach and be able to relate to them. I think that's most important, and you also have to give off good vibes."

"In my opinion, I believe that being a open and down to earth person can make a great teacher. Teachers are meant to be great, and a great friend. They're like superheroes, and they are always there for you."

"A great teacher is a teacher who loves kids of all ages. A teacher who is willing to give students time out of their personal time to help their students do better."

"A good teacher to me is someone who is really dedicated to his or her students. Someone who can make learning fun and someone who can be funny and focused at the same time."
