Good and Effective Teacher

Zeynep Kızıltepe

Abstract

This article presents a literature survey concerning how to be a good and effective teacher. The characteristics of being a good and effective teacher are summarized under three headings, namely 1) personality traits, 2) intellectual behaviors, and 3) instructional methods (McDonald, 1975). Although ‘a good teacher’ cannot be given just one definition, the characteristics presented may lead us to investigate what we lack while we are teaching and , therefore, may give us a chance to improve ourselves.
