Task 1 – List 5 qualities that a ‘good’ teacher should have and give reasons for your choices. Which of these qualities do you consider to be more important, and why?
Answer:
Being a good teacher is easy; he just must love what he teaches and who he teaches. But speaking about the qualities of a ‘good’ teacher, I think he should meet the requirements of three groups of people: students, parents and headmasters.

Parents require a good teacher to help their children develop knowledge, better school grades and have individual approach to every little genius. As for headmasters, they need responsible teachers with professional ethic, who follow school rules and regulations and guide students through the whole learning process.
If I described a ‘good’ teacher, I would add some other features to his personality and behavior.

The teacher also should have his own personality which can arouse a keen interest among his students. In the future, it will provide better results in communicating and studying and build trust relations.
2. A good teacher should be an excellent psychologist. He must be able to find the approach to any student (in spite of the student’s age, language level, background, motivation etc.), help the
