A Teacher’s Qualifications
People
want to know around when people first see the light of the day. Over time, this
desire becomes a conscious learning activity. They attempt to obtain
information from the family. Parents are in a position as teacher. As long as
they grow, they need to know new knowledge and skills in a systematic and
planned way. In this case, individuals need someone who will provide them to
guide for this information in a planned way. These guides are teachers. As new
things arise to learn, teachers who will teach new things should have some
qualifications. These qualifications are to being aware of something, being
expert in their branches and being learner-centered.
First,
awareness is a qualification which teacher should have. A teacher who has this
qualification is aware of behaviors which cause problems among students in the
classroom. For example, one of the
students has a problem with her/his friends or her/his family. He/she can
intuit these problems which cause student to fail in the courses and can
intervene against them. He/she cares about feelings and students. He shows this
with his behaviors and utterances. When the students say something, he supports
their ideas with positive comments. In this way, he pulls them into the
learning process. At the same time, he or she follows new developments in the
education system. Also, he/she
communicates with other teachers and people in order to be more useful to the
students.
Second,
it is clear that a teacher should be an expert in his or her branch. If he/ she
is an expert, he or she does not panic. A discussion in the classroom does not
scare her/his. His behaviors are serious and consistent and he does not
distinguish among students. He uses his body language and voice which everyone
can hear easily. He is prepared for his
lessons and he prepares a detailed schedule for lessons. Also, he gives
importance to professional rules and moral values. Additionally, he relies on
students to be successful and encourages them to study with groups for their
aims and achievements.
Lastly,
a teacher should be learner-centered. A teacher who has this qualification is
aware of students’ need. He should prepare unit and daily lesson program
according to students’ need. He should provide students’ participation in
lessons and should intervene the event when it is necessary. Education is
meaningful for the students when he behaves like that. He tries to recognize
students particularly. Therefore, he participates in activities of school and
interacts with students. At the same time, he gives students opportunity to
guide and control the learning process. Also, he discovers the best features
which students have and draws attention to these features.
In
conclusion, teachers should have some features which are to being aware of
something, being expert in their branches and being learner-centered. Education
has an important role in life. Even though it starts in the family, it
continuous in the school as it is inadequate and not planned in the family. The
teachers undertake this task. Therefore, they should have these qualifications.
