What characteristics do you think a good teacher should have?

　　Well, in my opinion, a good teacher should have the following characteristics:The first one is dedication. A good teacher should be fully devoted to the cause of education so that he or she could do best in his/her job and win students’ respect.The second is patience. A good teacher should never lose his/her patience because this may cause the students’ ignorance of the knowledge. Instead he/she should explain again and again until the students understand.Most of all, a good teacher should be amiable and friendly. If a teacher could become true friends of his/her students, they will communicate better and have a better interaction in class and thus improve the teaching quality.
