Hi Richard: I think we should stive to be genuine, original versions of ourselves, using our education, background, experience, and teaching prowess to facilitate the students learning. Attributes every teacher has is honesty, care and concern, enthusiasm, interest, and ability in a specific area - an expertise. Expressing that in our unique way helps create interesting and enjoyable learning sessions because we are just being natural with a focus to transfer our knowledge baout topics we know to our students.
