How to Teach?
One of the most important aspect of teaching is the way one teaches; yet highly undervalued. Teachers, without a doubt, have an extraordinary knowledge of the subject since they've mastered in it. Although, to impart that knowledge and wisdom on to a different person, especially a child, is a whole different task. For students, everything is new and difficult.
Instructing is the kind of science that needs a special mastery at. It is a process that every teacher learns in their life and constantly evaluate themselves throughout it. Good for the teachers of this generation, it is a process that is taught in education classes. Additionally, we offer the service. The art of teaching is way different from what is taught in any general higher education classes.
How to Learn?
Education in today's world evolves with each passing minute. Every minute, somewhere in the world, a new thing is created and if lucky enough, we might read about it. Every teacher should have the capability to learn new things, only then will he/she be able to engage his/her students in the concepts. Teachers should also have the capability to accept the fact that they could be wrong sometimes.
Not every subject requires a degree to teach, not every grade requires a degree to teach. The only thing that is required the most is one's capability to learn with patience, along with motivation. Knowing how to learn, is incredibly important for every teacher, if they wish to pursue teaching as a profession.
What to Teach?
The subject they've mastered and are responsible to teach is exactly what they should be teaching. The basics of any subject should be strong enough, since those are extremely important. The background knowledge forms the basis for all the future learning in an area. Today's generation is known as the Internet-age, where having specific detailed knowledge of a subject is not necessary.
Every teacher should refer to the syllabus and the concepts before they start teaching. However, with years of experience, they tend to do it easily in the later years of their lives. For someone who can research and learn, and has the basic background in a subject, any specific topic that needs to be taught can be researched and, with some planning, taught effectively.
Design Instructions
By now, you must've understood how important it is for a teacher to learn about the method of teaching rather than the subject. Similarly, the design of the lessons, about how they should be delivered is another important task as well. The enrichment activities, such as projects enhancing personal development of a student and evaluation methods are top-level skills that all the educators should definitely have or can develop in their subject-based educational practical classes.
Along with this, the teachers should also be able to figure out if a particular activity is important, or what skills it might upgrade; instead of just handing over an activity or a project to the students, the teachers should have an explanation within themselves if it worth their time.
Managing Classrooms
For anyone who has never taught, this may seem unimportant, but for those who have been on the front lines, knowing the skills of successfully navigating the minefields of a diverse, disinterested, sometimes hostile, student population is essential.
This is an entire discipline of its own that includes elements of psychology, counseling, discipline, self-confidence training, and many other subtle arts.
Counselling & Advocating Students
In a society that highly devalues a student's choices and indirectly forces him/her to choose a specified carrer path that they don't want, it is important for a teacher to be able to understand the choices of any student. Teachers are familiar with a student's choices, interests and skills; indirectly or directly, they can act as advocates for the students and should convince the parents to let their child follow the right path.
A good teacher should be able to counsel his/her students regarding the career choices and personal problems as well, if the policy of the institution permits. Counselling and advocation could be learned on the fly, as issues are encountered; but could be taught as a part of teacher education.
Inspire & Motivate
A quality that should be present without a doubt. It is a skill, although inherent for some educators, but one of the most important ones. Teachers along with delivering information and engaging the students, they should be able to motivate the students to study further. A teacher should be inspirational, if not in terms with their own life, then by preaching about other great people.
They should never let their students give up. With the internet evolving day by day, most subject matter can be learned as a major, outdated by the time the new teacher would get to apply it anyway. Rather, it's better to educate the teachers on methods of teaching than the subject matter. Our teachers need to be cutting edge thinkers and learners, instructional designers, child advocates, activists, politicians, and motivational speakers. Many have these qualities naturally, but teacher education programs can, or should aim to cultivate them in the next generation of educators.
