Desirable Qualities in a Teacher
Here I want to try to give you an answer to the question: What personal qualities are desirable in a teacher? Probably no two people would draw
(51) exactly similar lists, but I think the following would be generally
(52) .
First, the teacher's personality should be
(53) live and attractive. This does not
(54) people who are physically plain, or even ugly, because many
(55) have great personal charm. I would say that
(56) all of dull or purely negative personality. I still stick to
(57) I said in my earlier book: that school children probably suffer more from bores than from brutes.
Secondly, it is not merely desirable
(58) essential for a teacher to have a
(59) capacity for sympathy in the literal meaning of that word; a capacity to
(60) in to the minds and feelings of other people, especially, since most teachers are school teachers,
(61) the minds and feelings of children. Closely related with this is the capacity to be tolerant not indeed,
(62) what is wrong, but of frailty (脆弱) and immaturity of human nature which induce people, and
(63) especially children, to make mistakes.
Thirdly, ! hold
(64) essential for a teacher to be both intellectually and morally honest. This does not mean
(65) a plaster saint. It means that he will be aware of his intellectual strengths.
