EFFECTIVE TEACHING

Well, I think that what makes an effective teacher is his or her passion for teaching; taht is in my personal judgment.In chapter one we can find some cualities teachers must have to be effective; they all are necessary for teachers to have a successful classroom environment, but I think that the most important ones are: knowledge of teaching and learning, and content knowledge.

 Why do I believe this?

 For me, we never stop learning even when we become teachers; also, we can share our experiences and learning abilities with our students.The thing is that we as teachers can share knowledge and acquire knowledge all at the same time while we are in the classroom and outside the classroom; that's why, I think knowledge of teaching and learning is important.On the other hand, we also have to know what we teach to our students, what kind of values, and experiences we transmit to them. It is clear that we have to be prepared for our students questions;also, we need to know which our students needs are in order for us to connect with them, and not only have a connection with them, but also create a relationship. This is the reason why I think content knowledge is important for effective teaching.
