  6. I think some qualities of a good teacher are to be kind of funny with the students, just not to be strict all of the time and I think that teachers who really connect to the kids make that student and teacher tension go away.

    A good student has some responsibilities not all of which are just about their work, they have to be respectful of the other students and teacher, they also have to set somewhat of an example for the class. They also have to try and make a good effort on all of their work and turn it in on time.

    A good class respects the teacher and participates in the activities and also asks questions but doesn't laugh or anything if someone asks a stupid question or gets an answer wrong.

  7. I think that the qualities of a good teacher knows how to make class fun. She/he are not just boring during class. He/she is able to joke around at times and have a little fun but stays on topic also. It's a big plus if they can teach in many different ways.

    The qualities of good students are happy to be in the class with the teacher because it makes class more enjoyable.They have to be willing to learn or they may just be wasting others time. Paying attention during class.

    The best qualities of a good class are cooperative so it makes it easy on the teacher.Easy to work with (not loud) because it can be very distracting. They all helpful to one another.

  8. A good teacher is one who creates a casual but challenging environment. I don't think teachers should be too strict but they should put all responsibility for books and assignments on the student.

    Good students are kids who bring supplies to class, get there on time, and adhere to the rules of the school. A good student should also be friendly and organized.

    I think that a good class is one who is respectful to each other, competitive, and respectful to their teachers.

  11. A good teacher is a teacher that is exciting to listen to and does fun thinks with the class. That does not say the same thing over and over again and who does not make us do to much or pointless homework.

    A good student is a hard worker, listens to the teacher does homework and turns it in on time, has fun in the class, and is a good person to have in class and is not disruptive.

    A good class is one where the students can feel safe, and don’t care if they say something stupid, and who are encouraging to everyone.

Good students are ones that do their work but can take a break and have a good laugh, and also are diligent in their work. And good classes are ones that get the work done and help everyone else, but have a laugh while doing it.

  21. A good teacher is there to challenge his or her students to do their best and learn as much as possible. Class can be a lot of fun while still challenging. Teachers also need to get a class excited about a class. It is easy to learn when you want to learn.

    A good student must always try their best in everything. The smartest student doesn’t always get the best grades. The student that tries the hardest and spends his or her time wisely gets the grades.

    Qualities of a good class are they are always paying attention and ready to learn. The class is excited to learn and is respectful of others and of the teacher. A major quality of a good class is that class is always participating.

  22. Qualities of a good teacher can range from being supportive to having the attitude to teach. The most important quality of a teacher is that he/she will go the extra mile to make a learning experience excellent enough to prepare the student in the specific topic weather it be math, science, or a life lesson.

    A student that is willing to learn and has the desire to do the right thing will make a learning experience even better. If the student wants to learn you can bet on that student to succeed in the subject they are learning.

    A classroom is also very import in the learning experience. The class needs to be safe, calming, and a place were everybody feels involved.

  23. Some qualities of a good teacher are things like making a class entertaining, It seems easier to learn if you i am entertained. also kindness. I want to feel comfortable asking my teacher something or raising my voice in class,

    A good student should be one that wants to learn and wants to be challenged with knew things. Also a good student is someone who listens to not just the teacher, but anyone who is speaking.

    A good classroom is a friendly classroom. One with fun posters or cool painted walls or cool displays. Also a good classroom also should be a place where everyone feels comfortable.

  24. The good qualities of teachers I’ve had are letting me come in for help when I need it, working one on one when I do come in, having good contact with my parents, and being fairly strict. While I like all these qualities, I believe the best quality is when a teacher knows when to be strict and when to be fun. This is important because a teacher needs to be strict so that students do teir work, but the teacher needs to let students have some fun so that they are motivated to work. I also really like working one on one with a teacher because I feel like I understand the material better. Lastly, I like it when my teacher keeps my parents involved so that they can help me at home and know what is happening at school.

  26. An important quality of a good teacher, in my opinion, would be the ability to entertain and captivate while educating. This is a good way to keep the class engrossed in what they're learning while having fun doing so. Class activities, exciting projects, and maybe even music in the classroom would all be great ideas to facilitate a new way of learning. I also believe that a teacher's willingness to be open minded and available to their students will help the class feel less stressed about getting a question wrong and more willing to participate. These are just a few of the many good qualities of a teacher.

    A good student should always be prepared
    and excited to learn. If you're not prepared then you'll fall short of the expectations, adding unnecessary stress on yourself and ultimately more work. If you're not excited to learn something that could help you for the future you'll begin to lose interest and miss out on something that could possibly change your life. Also, they should ALWAYS study and ask questions when they need help. This is a good way to learn from your mistakes and achieve your goals.

    A good classroom consist of a friendly environment with plenty to help keep you focused. For instance, wheely chairs. In a recent study on student learning behaviors, it was found that the majority of kids who were involved in an alternate activity while learning, like chewing gum, rolling back and forth in a wheely chair, or listening to music, tend to learn faster and retain more information. Remove a students focus and you remove their ability and desire to learn.

  27. Quality's of good teachers would be one that is happy and opened minded to the students opinions
    and treats every student fairly. Quality's of good students would be one that is prepared for class and is ready to learn and one that is not afraid to ask a question even if the question is obvious.
    Quality's of a good class would be clean environment and activities to help you think such as chewing gum, chairs with wheels and listening to music.

  29. What are the quality’s of a good teacher? To me a good teacher is fun exiting and has lots of energy. these quality’s are important because there energy and excitement keeps the class engaged and interested in the class because no one wants to get up and come to school at 7:21 to listen to a tired crabby quite teacher. They should also help students when they need it but not constantly sit there and tell them what to do even though they already know what to do. One more quality that makes a great teacher is there flexibility in teaching methods for example they don’t use a power point to lecture every day they use all of there recourses smart boards, chalk boards, dry erase boards, projectors, text books, internet, etc.
    The quality’s of a good student are that they work hard get along with other students they keep up with the class and there assignments they are respectful to there teacher as well as there piers. they come into class ready to learn not to sit there and talk with friends.
    The quality’s of a good class are that they work together to achieve a higher understanding of English or any other subject. Piers help one another when someone doesn’t understand because the teacher is not the only one that can help.

  30. To me qualities of a good teacher are if they are in a good mood and if they can teach the class in a fun way. I think its easier for the class to learn if you are friends with the students and if the teacher is nice, fun, and funny.


    I think a good class is a class that listens to what the teacher is saying and respects the teacher. I think the class will learn more and easier if they get involved.

  32. A good quality of a teacher is that they are relaxed. If the teacher is relaxed then the student can feel relaxed too.

    A good quality of a student is that they respect their teacher and peer. If this happens then the teacher doesn't have to waste the class’s time lecturing him.

    A good quality of a class would be that they all participate. If the class participates then it will make the class more exciting because not just one kid answers all the questions.
