What makes a good teacher?

<p>What are the qualities of a good teacher to you?</p>

<ul>
<li>he/she has to be a good motivator</li>
<li>provides a few USEFUL resources (not a bunch of random papers)</li>
<li>knows the subject inside and out</li>
<li>can easily relate to the students as a person (helps so much)</li>
<li>doesn’t give boring PowerPoints/lectures </li>
<li>this is a little weird, but I love teachers who dress well. I give them so much more respect than others. </li>
</ul>

<p>That’s all I can think of off the top of my head.</p>

<p>Teachers who don’t act like they know everything and constantly try to put people down. A trait that usually entails successful teachers (provided they are knowledgeable about their field) is that they are genuinely nice people.</p>
