    REFLECTIVE JOURNAL

    The Teacher

    Teachers play an essential role in education, most especially in the lives of the students
    they teach in the classroom. What defines a teacher is his/her ability to teach students and a
    positive influence on them.
    Generally, the role of a teacher in education goes beyond teaching. In today’s world,
    teaching has different faces, and a teacher has to carry out the part of being an external parent,
    counselor, mentor, role model, and so on.
    Some of the roles of teachers in education include: Sharing Knowledge, first things first,
    the primary duty of a teacher is to impart knowledge, and that comes from teaching. Teaching
    usually entails following a specific curriculum and ensuring that the students understand what is
    being taught; Another role of teacher is Role modeling, Although teachers do not see themselves
    as role models, the truth is they actually are. The amount of time students spend with teachers
    each day or week makes it possible for them to have a certain level of influence on the students.
    It is now down to the teacher to make this influence positive or negative; Another important role
    of a teacher is an External parent, The role of a teacher transcends following a specific lesson
    plan and work schedule. Because both students and teachers spend as much time together, the
    teacher inadvertently becomes an external parent. Teachers can be a mentor to help set the child
    on the right path. In this role, the teacher can encourage the student to be the best they can be,
    and also be a source of inspiration and advice to the students.
    Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) education faculty and university students
    shared their thoughts on the qualities that make effective teachers stand out. According to
    SNHU, good teachers are strong communicators, listens well, focuses on collaboration, are
    adaptable, are engaging, shows empathy, have patience, values real-world learning, shares best
    practices and are life-long learners.
    As per the discussion, the professional qualities of teacher are: mastery of the subject
    matter, understanding the learner, understanding the principles and methods of teaching, general
    understanding of other branches or field of knowledge and taking pride of teaching as a
    profession.
