QUALITIES OF A PROFESSIONAL TEACHER
1. MASTERY OF THE SUBJECT If a teacher lacks knowledge in a subject, that dearth of understanding is passed along to the students. And keep in mind that although formal education is one way a teacher might gain the knowledge they need in order to teach well, there are other ways.
2.UNDERSTANDING THE STUDENT  Learners are individuals and bring their own needs and experience to the learning environment. To be an effective teacher, it is necessary to appreciate the importance this knowledge plays in creating a successful learning experience for the student.
3. MOTIVATIONAL  Enthusiastic with standards and expectations for students and self.
4. ORGANIZED  . A study (Harry Wong,1998) showed that classroom management depended upon a teacher's early organization skills, which led to student cooperation, engaged student activity, and a productive learning environment.
5. PUNCTUAL  Puntuality among the teachers is the reflection of self discipline and devotion to work and give knowledge to the students. Students are impressed with the teachers, they learn from them. The teachers should be puntual so that the students learn the same from them, learning gets easier.
6. PATIENCE  Some children may take longer to understand certain subjects or pieces of information and it is vital that you are patient and take the time to fully explain so that they understand and learn from your teaching
7. INTEGRITY  Integrity is the quality of honesty and having strong moral principles and so it is necessary for the teacher to have these so that the pupils can be educated to act in the same way. Integrity allows teachers to be a role model for their pupils.
8. FLEXIBLE  Each one of your students is unique, which means that at any point, any one of them could catch you completely off guard, whether it's with a thought-provoking question, a challenging learning barrier, or a brilliant accomplishment. Be prepared to handle your “teachable moments” with style.
10. COMPASSIONATE  Teaching is a very humanistic profession, and compassion is the utmost feeling of understanding, and showing others you are concerned about them. A compassionate teacher models that characteristic to the students with her/his actions, and as a result students will be more open to understanding the world around them.
