Strong teacher. Professional and personal qualities of a teacher

What qualities should a teacher have? This question opens before us an abyss of others: which teacher? For what and to whom? Qualities personal or professional, and which of them is more important? For example, can a teacher be required to love children, or is it enough that he treats them with respect and teaches his subject well? Should a teacher be a sociable ringleader? Which teacher is better - kind or strict? Which one will be more successful - a rebel or a conformist?

We can endlessly argue, argue and prove. This is because there is no “spherical teacher in a vacuum”. Each teacher exists in a specific social, economic, cultural situation, where he faces certain goals and needs certain qualities to achieve them successfully.

What should be the ideal teacher? Maybe like this? Frame from the film "The School of Rock" (2003)

And if you do not argue, but ask others: what qualities of a teacher do they consider important? Such a conversation will help some participants in education to look at others in a new way.

Once again, we were convinced of this by a small study undertaken in 2015 by the eleventh grader Gohar Sargsyan. Goar spent it among high school students, their parents and teachers of the Shchelkovo gymnasium (the city of Shchelkovo, Moscow region), where she herself studied. The purpose of the study was to compare "the requirements of the state, reflected in the professional standard of the teacher, and the needs of society to identify the priority qualities of the teacher."

Or like this? Frame from the film "We'll Live Until Monday" (1968)

There is a document that defines the list of professional and personal requirements for a teacher in the territory of the Russian Federation - this is a professional teacher standard, which entered into force on January 1, 2015. Based on these requirements, it is possible to identify those qualities that the state would like to see in a teacher.

It is always interesting to compare official expectations with real life. This is what Gohar Sargsyan decided to do.

The idea for the study came from observing students and teachers from different schools. At that time, I had already decided to become a teacher myself and wanted to learn more about the profession. Seeing that sometimes even the most talented and inquisitive children lose interest in learning, I decided to find the root of the problem and, as a future teacher, model the image of an ideal teacher. The image of a teacher who will help students become better.

The survey involved more than a hundred high school students, 40 parents and 25 gymnasium teachers - elementary, middle and senior teachers. All respondents were asked to freely answer the question: “What qualities should an ideal teacher have?”

Respondents independently named or wrote down the qualities and explained what they meant. The answers were systematized in summary tables.

Ideal teacher for students

100% of the students who took part in the survey believe that the ideal teacher should be strict and patient. Also, all the students-respondents were unanimous in the fact that the teacher should be able to interest the material.

80% of respondents - for an unbiased attitude on the part of the teacher and an individual approach (“everyone wants to be evaluated fairly and helped to achieve better results”).

Students explained the word "fairness" as an assessment based on knowledge, not nationality, appearance, and so on. Approximately the same words describe tolerance in the answers of other respondents.

Ideal teacher for parents

For all interviewed parents, the ideal teacher is one who knows his subject perfectly. As a separate quality, 100% of parents indicated "love for their profession and children."

In the questionnaires of parents, an item appeared that the students did not single out for themselves: indifference.

Indifference was explained by parents as a sympathetic attitude towards students. A caring teacher, firstly, always makes sure that the children have learned the material, and secondly, provides emotional support when necessary.

Ideal teacher from the point of view of… teachers

But the teachers seem to be sure that patience and work will grind everything. 100% of the surveyed teachers of all levels - for excellent knowledge of the subject and patience.

But the main thing is that it was the survey of teachers, according to Gohar, that turned out to be the most interesting part of the study for her.

After talking with the teachers, learning about their feelings, I saw them from a new perspective. Most of all, I was struck by the teachers, who, instead of the “correct” words suitable for the situation, spoke honestly and frankly about all the complexities of this profession. It turned out that in teaching practice there are many situations in which an inexperienced person is simply confused. And all that can make a good teacher out of a person is indifference. “If you have a desire to make the world a better place, then this is for you,” a computer science teacher said to me about the teaching profession.

Gohar compared all the answers of her respondents with the requirements of the professional standard. The result turned out to be consistent. Unless, of course, no standard can require a teacher to have a sense of humor, indifference, love for children and patience. But people in their non-standard, living human relationships have the right to expect this from each other.

My study did not give a fundamentally new answer, but it showed me how important personal qualities are for this profession: my respondents spoke about personal, not professional qualities.
Now I am studying to be a teacher, I chose a foreign language as a specialty. What qualities of a teacher do I single out now? The ideal teacher is not a template model. This is an interesting, charismatic, educated person, charged with creative energy, who brings up the same active, caring and thinking children.

And we propose to continue the conversation on a given topic. What qualities of a teacher are valued in your environment? Which ones are right for you?

There are a huge number of ways to find a competent teacher, and among them the most popular are such as asking for help from a neighbor whose child has already passed the necessary exams, or looking for a teacher through an ad. Unfortunately, the considered approaches to solving this problem do not always work, and it often happens that only a specialist working on the USE Internet portal Tutor ru can provide really worthy help. An experienced manager will find a strong tutor for you who will be able to provide your child with all the necessary knowledge, while even the most difficult material will be told in an understandable language. When it comes to lessons with a good teacher, it should be remembered that not everything depends on the teacher and a high school student must be ready for decent work. If your child is not deprived of such skills as discipline, the desire to learn new material, and he is also purposeful, that is, he knows how to achieve his goals, then you can be sure that together with a worthy teacher they will achieve impressive results.

A strong tutor, what skills should a teacher have?

An experienced teacher has professional skills and qualities, which will be discussed below:

An important quality for a teacher is an assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of his student, which allows him to find an individual approach to him;
Knowledge control must be carried out, because otherwise it is difficult to think about what success the student will achieve. Therefore, a good tutor is able to timely identify gaps in the teaching of a high school student and eliminate them in time;
Purposefulness. You can not move blindly, it is important to know the direction. A class schedule is developed, and the teacher does everything possible so that both he and your child adhere to it.

I haven't been this high after watching an anime in a long time.
Because I haven't seen a really interesting character in a long time.
So, stop, just finished watching Durarara a month ago... Well, you don't lie on the floor for a month, so...
Ahem. Let's start with seiyuu composition. To be honest, I came across this anime when I was looking through the list of Persians seiyuu Hiroshi Kamiya. My favorite voice, I love it. I can only listen to it all day and never get bored (two years already). And then, by luck, after Durarara (and a couple of relatively average animations) I stumbled upon

Well, in Japanese 電波 dump is "electro-magnetic waves" and 教師 kyoshi- teacher.

As usual, before watching the anime, I studied

character list

And checked the composition of the seiyuu. Guys, this contraption will give odds even to such masterpieces in terms of seiyu composition as Durarara (hmm, I often talked about her), nogenora, cell work, two onmyoji stars, gatari and so on.
Well, firstly, as I said, Hiroshi Kamiya is the voice of Messrs. Junichiro Kagami. Realistically, one would watch the anime just for the sake of it.
Secondly, the second master of voice actors is Yoshitsugu Matsuoka! Damn, how long have I wanted to hear the dialogue of their characters! True, Persian Matsuoka appears only in one episode, but even so cool! And the Persian himself perfectly suited the voice of his seiyuu (so, stop, shouldn't it be the other way around?).
Third, Hana-chan! The number one female seiyuu for me (although she is not the only one, but let's not talk about it). And again in your repertoire! Even before viewing, having read the description of Reiko, I was immediately intrigued. Oops, what do we have here? Isn't it Shiro? Plus, there's definitely something wrong with her.

Well, it didn’t turn out to be so dirty, but still the Persian is chic, especially performed by Hana-chan.
Fourth, of course, Ten-chan (another number one female seiyuu)! Ahh, how long have I not heard her voice in anime! And then there's the chanka-future seiyuu! Beauty!
Fifth, Maou with Kansai dialect! And so hardened that even I was surprised! Thank you, kayfan!
Also not to mention Risa Taneda, Yoshimasu Hosoya, Ayahi Takagaki and Aya Hirano! You made these two days!
Now about some of the most striking characters. By and large, almost everyone was amused, but there was too much time and space for everyone.
Junichiro Kagami. The best character. I put it on par with eagles like Izaya Orihara,

, Keima Katsuragi and so on. How I wish I had such a teacher! And how I wish I could be like that!

well, OK. In fact, I also have some kind of YD ... Only I'm oooh, how far from a genius. Because too quickly my "yaritai" disappears and is replaced by another, therefore, I started a lot of different things, but, unlike "wakuwaku" (as Reiko called it), I did not finish any of them.

They revealed it pretty well, but I would like more cool moments when the viewer seems to get into his head. But this is so, the desire of a loser who only knows how to scratch his tongue and tap on the clave.
And they gave him a cool name. The surname "Kagami" means "mirror" or "lens". So it can be assumed if the surname is only heard without seeing its spelling. But. In fact, with its hieroglyph, it means "sample, example." Yeah, confirmation of Azuma-sensei's agreement with the views and methods of his hero, isn't it? Although there is something in the "mirror"... Junichiro's name... Ah, -ichiro let's discard the typical suffix of the male name "eldest son" (I don't like him, to be honest, it looks like an excuse). The remaining hieroglyph jun means "pure, pure". Probably about his position. It is clean from trifles and prejudices (although, depending on which side to look at).
The second most interesting character is Koyomi. No, not Arara

sorry, fingers slipped

gi, and Hiiragi. Instead of "orchid" we have "holly". I wonder if Azuma-sensei set it up on purpose? If so, what's the catch? Ah, okay. In general, the main puppeteer of the whole work. Even "vakuvaku" dances to her tune. I am very happy for her, she uses her abilities as correctly as possible (IMHO).
And with Yamato, it’s even somehow insulting. However, as with Madoka. To be honest, in my eyes they are the living embodiment of the author's main mistake. DID NOT OPEN "VAKUVACU" IN ROMANCE! And it’s so interesting what position and what methods he has in this area! (It's not hard to guess, but I'd like to see it!)
Speaking of birds, there is romance in genres! Oblomicus...
Outcome. 10 Camii out of 10. Definitely. It’s a pity, I can’t download this masterpiece, otherwise I would review it every month, like a nogenor ...

I started watching: it seems to be not bad dynamics, characters, funny situations, but then: these stupid repetitive clichés, lazy plot writing techniques, excessive exaggeration of some things, and as a result, all the magic and charm of the series that was at first crumbling like a house of cards - its just not interesting to watch. As a result - drop...

7 out of 10. Not bad, light and watchable, but nothing more.
A comparison with the teacher Onizuka suggests itself, such nuances as class 2-3 and so on, for example, but Onizuka kanesh is much cooler, although Onizuka is not my type.
Onizuka's strengths are physical strength and the fact that he knows how to enjoy life and loves people. Cons - stupid, but it creates naturalness and organicity in the image.
Kagami is a genius in physics, programming and a super player + enjoys manga. The most typical measure. It is impossible to make a discovery in physics, even being a genius, without studying it closely, scrolling through something there for a couple of years. A superplayer is a life in the game for hours, a hacker programmer too. All these skills in one person are simply impossible. Apparently, the manga was drawn by a high school student who did not go to school. The entire plot line of the level of development is of the same type. GG type helps children, but in fact the whole plot is tied to his figure. For example, he gives a 2nd chance to an athlete, to start from scratch in another sport - captain obvious? you say, change the sport if you have a disc, no, this is like a brilliant decision. The way he helps difficult teenagers is also beyond, the conflicts are either weak or far-fetched. For example, when he helped the appraiser girl, in fact, he again dragged the plot over to himself, not to her problems, not to the fact that she had to cope with problems, but by deciding everything by brilliantly winning the first time playing the game. Level of study - kindergarten. And he doesn't really have any friends. The image is very unrealistic and far-fetched, so the anime, although light, is weak. The same Onizuka, for example, helped socialization, but he had a bunch of friends and understood what it was. There was an emphasis on de-escalating the problem, making it easier to relate to life. Here, in fact, the teacher teaches to do what is interesting, in fact, the idea is so-so. After all, if the main character had not become interested in physics, he would not even have been taken as a teacher. The real thing is that self-indulgence is bad, and the teacher is obliged to create interest in his subject. The fact that GG is not able to be interested in anything other than anime is not to say that it is worthy of emulation. Finding interests and keeping them is also a valuable skill. It is impossible to achieve success in physics and programming without doing the most boring routine. Most finished off the ending of the title)

A teacher is a person who teaches and educates students. But, of course, such a definition cannot reveal all that a teacher needs to do and for which he is responsible during the educational process. And not everyone can become one. It is necessary that a person has a special type of personality. What qualities of a teacher help him in transferring knowledge to other generations?

Professional readiness

Briefly list the qualities of a teacher, they will be as follows:

love for children;
humanism;
intelligence;
creative approach to work;
high civic responsibility and social activity;
physical and mental health.

Together, they constitute professional readiness for pedagogical activity. It distinguishes psychophysiological and theoretical and practical aspects. They describe the requirements for determining the competence of a teacher. Pedagogical competence is the definition of the theoretical and practical readiness of the teacher to carry out his professional activities. At the same time, the requirements for an elementary school teacher are somewhat different from other teachers.

Qualities of the first school teacher

In the modern education system, the concept of "elementary school teacher" has become more widely used than before. If once its functions were limited only by the fact that it gave basic knowledge to children, now its field of activity has expanded significantly.

Therefore, the requirements for the qualities of a primary school teacher are now the following:

he is not only a teacher, but also an educator;
must know the psychophysiological characteristics of children;
he must be able to organize the activities of his wards;
the teacher actively interacts with children and their parents;
readiness for constant self-development;
the teacher must create optimal conditions for learning;
helps students interact with the environment;
owns modern teaching methods.

The primary school teacher is not comparable with the teachers of the middle and senior levels. His functions are even wider, since he is always the class teacher and teaches several disciplines. Of course, the qualities of a teacher, both professional and personal, are important.

What skills and abilities does the teacher have?

What should a teacher be like? This is determined by the standards that are prescribed in the Federal State Educational Standard, as well as the qualities listed by other famous personalities in pedagogy. For example, such an employee must constantly educate himself and improve his skills. The professional qualities of a teacher are as follows:

a broad outlook and the ability to correctly present the material;
training taking into account the individual characteristics of students;
competent, delivered speech and clear diction;
the ability to use facial expressions and gestures during performances;
focus on working with students;
the ability to quickly respond to situations, resourcefulness;
the ability to correctly formulate goals;
must have organizational skills;
quality control of students' knowledge.

Important qualities of a teacher are his knowledge and skills acquired during his studies and during his professional activities. He should also be able to apply them in his work as a teacher.

Personal qualities of a teacher

It is very important that the teacher had a theoretical base, which is the basis of the educational process. But even if a person knows everything about raising and educating children, he may not become a good teacher. What should be a teacher from a personal point of view? A qualified specialist is defined by the following qualities:

Leading abilities in pedagogical activity

The activity of the teacher is of a successive and promising nature. Having the knowledge of past generations, he must master modern techniques and follow new trends. Also, the teacher must see the personal potential of students.
Interactions between a teacher and a student are subjective-subjective in nature. The "object" of the teacher's activity is a group of students or a pupil, who at the same time are the subject of their own activity with their own needs and interests.
In the educational process, it is difficult to evaluate the contribution made by everyone involved in the upbringing and education of the child. Therefore, pedagogical activity has a collective character.
The process of upbringing and education takes place in a natural and social environment in which it is difficult to take into account all factors. Therefore, the teacher has to constantly create optimal conditions for learning.
Pedagogical activity is creative. The teacher has to constantly look for non-standard solutions for the tasks set, various ways to increase the motivation of pupils. Also, the mentor must be proactive, observant, he must strive for excellence.
All professional activities of a teacher are based on humanistic principles: respect for the individual, trust, the ability to empathize with students, faith in the child's abilities.
The teacher cannot immediately see the result of his work.
The teacher is constantly engaged in self-education and improves the level of his qualifications, that is, there is continuous learning.

The teaching profession involves constant interaction with a large number of people, namely children. He must be able to organize their activities and keep their attention in class. The teacher must know the psychophysiological characteristics of each age period of children and apply them in practice. Also, the teacher must be able to cope with a large amount of information.

Or maybe it's a calling?

It is difficult to determine what is more important: to get a pedagogical education or to love children and have a sincere desire to teach and educate them. For many, teaching is not a job, it's a calling. Because if you want to build trust with your child, you have to be a little small yourself.

A teacher should be like a child who is always interested in everything, who is always in search of something new. And being a teacher is a great talent, you need to be able to discern in each pupil his potential and help realize it. Also, the teacher must be a highly spiritual and cultured person in order to bring up the right life guidelines in his wards.
