One of the most important things that teachers have to do, is develop a relationship with their students. When teachers have a relationship, the student feels more comfortable to approach their teacher. Also, when teachers have a relationships with their students, they care more about them and their individual learning. Student-teacher relationships can be very beneficial for both people.

Another important aspect to teaching, is that teachers have to be able to engage their students, instead of just throwing information at them. Students are not going to have the desire to learn if the information is just being thrown at them and they are asked to memorize it. The best teachers are the ones that can get their students involved throughout the class and get their students to love participating. The problem-posing method is definitely a better method to use when teaching and approaching ones students. Instead of just giving them the information to memorize for themselves, they propose a question for their students in order to get them to start thinking for themselves. This is a better method to teaching because it increases their level of thinking and their ability to comprehend the material that is being covered.

Overall, I believe that it is important for teachers to be able to establish relationships with their students in order for their students to be more willing to seek them out for help and in order to get the students to be more comfortable with their teachers. I also believe that it is a teachers job to be passionate and for them to be able to engage their students in the classroom. Information should not just be thrown at a student, it should be given to them in a way that will make them want to learn and grasp the information.
