A SUCCESSFUL TEACHER

A SUCCESSFUL TEACHER
                                                                               
By Sri Aurobindo

  1. Complete self control not only to the extent of not showing any anger, but remaining absolutely quiet and undisturbed under all circumstances.
  2. Above all, must have the knowledge that the Teacher himself must always progress if he wants his students to progress, must not remain satisfied either with what he is or with what he knows.
  3. Must not have any sense of essential superiority over his students, nor preference or attachment whatsoever for one or another.
  4. Must know that all are equal spiritually and instead of mere tolerance must have a global comprehension or understanding.
  5. Should always be punctual and come to the class a few minutes before it begins.

     6.   Always properly dressed.

      7.  Know thoroughly what you have to teach. Try to get a good  understanding of your students and their particular needs.

     8.  Be very calm and very patient; never get angry; one must be master of oneself in order to be a master of others.

      9.  Children must be educated in an atmosphere of love and gentleness. No violence, never. No scolding, never.Teacher must be the living example of the virtues the child must acquire.

    10. Teacher must be their best friend who gives them the example of the qualities they must acquire.

    11. It is absolutely forbidden to hit the children-all blows are forbidden, even the slightest little slap or the so called friendly punch. Blowing a child indicates a lack of self control and it is harmful for both teacher and student.

    12. Disciplinary measures may be taken if necessary, but in complete calm and not because of a personal reaction.

    13. Never demand from a child an effort of discipline that you do not make yourself .Calm, equanimity, order, method, absence of useless words, ought to be constantly practiced by the teacher if he wants to instill them into his pupils.

Why Some Math Formulas Shall be Memorized

By: Frank Ho | 25/11/2009
Shall math formulas be memorized by students? Many times we hear the answer is either YES or NO and both these answers are absolutely wrong. If the answer is “yes” then it seems to imply that all formulas learned from grade 1 to grade 12 shall be remembered, this is a wrong way of teaching math. In contrast if the answer is “no” then it means students are not required to remember anything and in this case what is the consequence if students do not bother to remember any formulas?

Piano Learning Program - Rocket Piano

By: Sally Jensen | 24/11/2009
Many people have learned to play the piano through various methods. The most common would be to learn under a supervision of a professor, a teacher or an instructor. This would mean paying a large fee for some time. If you do not have that much cash, a piano learning program would be ideal for you. It can actually help you be independent to learn the piano.

How To Find A Math Tutor

By: Frank Ho | 23/11/2009
Let's face it. Math tutor does not need a license to teach (at least in North America). So anyone with some kind of degree can claim to be a well qualified math tutor and the consequence, sometimes, is poor kids suffered since they can not judge if they have been taught in the correct way or not. I have written other articles to point out some problems on how some math tutors have taught math concepts or math algorithms in a very ineffective way.

Sudoku Chess Puzzles Spark Children’s Math Interest

By: Frank Ho | 23/11/2009
I have observed that one of the main reasons that children hate math is they have not mastered the foundation of math, surprisingly the root of problems can be traced to the basics they learned in the elementary grades such as addition, subtraction, multiplication or division. When elementary students are asked why do we have math?

How to Use Chess to Improve Math

By: Frank Ho | 23/11/2009
Some math educators seem to feel math problems can be divided into 2 parts, one is pure computation and the other is problem solving - this claim is evident by examining the textbooks used in schools. When looking at the worksheets offered for elementary students, this seems to be very logic since there is “nothing” could be related to numbers used in the computational problems to enhance thinking ability.

The Future Trend of Math Learning Center

By: Frank Ho | 23/11/2009
Will the way of math teaching change in the future? I think so, especially in the elementary schools. The idea of just giving traditional math worksheets to children for them to work on and expect them to do math well will become an increasingly unpopular method of teaching math. It is boring and it is not what children wanted and children had never given any choices as to what kinds of worksheets they wanted, they were simply told to work on them.

SUCCESS ROOTS IN THE CLASSROOM ONLY

By: Harekrushna Behera | 11/10/2009 | K-12 Education
Values like Leadership, unity, confidence, love, courage etc are cultivated in the classroom only. A classroom is not a dead room rather it’s a living platform. Classroom is the heart of the school, which experiences 7 to 8 period daily. Class room is a reflection, a motivation where pupils meet teachers, ask questions, give answers, do humour & many more.

IT’S YOUR WILL POWER……

By: Harekrushna Behera | 11/10/2009 | Motivational
It’s your will power, which matters everything. I have seen many hidden qualities of the children, which became their hobbies & later on their profession. The power of will gives water to the little plant of potentiality within you.

INTELLECTUAL GOSSIP

By: Harekrushna Behera | 15/09/2009 | Tutoring
Gossips play an important role in everybody’s life. More often teachers gossip at their free periods. There is no wrong in it. It’s natural. But the quality of gossiping must be maintained so that our mind and attitude will be nurtured in a positive and progressive ways.

EVRYTHING CHANGES WITH THE LEADER ONLY

By: Harekrushna Behera | 15/09/2009 | K-12 Education
The whole institution runs under the tune of the ‘leader’ only. As the leader, so the institution. Leader works as a catalyst to bring a revolution in the institution. A school is such an institution which needs the same kind of catalyst who takes risk and works with challenge in the way of progress.

LET’S MAKE OUR SCHOOL SAFE

By: Harekrushna Behera | 02/07/2009 | K-12 Education
Today children are the most vulnerable part of any hazards-it may be natural or manmade. As they are small and innocent it’s our (we, the teachers, parents, managements and community) responsibility to give safeguard and train them how to face hazards as challenges. They must be built as confident, bold and courageous. Our future nation can only be saved if the present children are safe
