She may have to play many different roles, like a parent, a teacher, a friend, a motivator, a helper, a story-teller, an actor, an organizer, an evaluator, an observer, etc. Besides many the qualities, a good primary school English teacher need to develop competence in at least three areas: the English language, the understanding of children, and the techniques and methods for teaching children English. Among these, understanding how children think and learn is the key to undertake primary education. Be a good observer in the classroom in a clever way. |
