Being a highly effective teacher doesn’t just come to you. It will take time. The first real experience will be your first year of teaching. Effective teaching is a teaching philosophy that can be very efficient to use in the classroom. If a teacher is very self-aware, confident, and persistent, has good work ethic and believes in one’s ability these traits can be incorporated into effective teaching. One characteristic that I think is important is work ethic. Another way to show you have a good work ethic is through your lessons plans. You also need to have great enthusiasm because you want your students to be interested in your classroom activities. If the students are interested they will be engaged in the lessons that you are teaching. Another key attribute would be confidence. This would be important to me because if I am confident in myself I will be less nervous in the classroom in front of my students. I need to believe in myself and know that the college courses I have taken will help prepare me to be an effective teacher in the classroom. I just have to get to the classroom first to get the experience in.
