I am happy to say that this characterization was not true of most students. 10 Habits Of Effective Teachers. 10 Habits Of Effective Teachers Notice that we didn’t use the more vague “good teacher” phrasing.
That’s an important distinction, because here we’re talking about something a bit more clinical. Not entirely scientific and analytical and icky, but not entirely rhetorical and abstract and mushy either. Something somewhere in the middle–human, efficient, and hopefully happy and sustainable as a result. 1. KinectEDucation. 8 Things Your Students Are Afraid to Tell You.
