This unit taught me a lot about being a good teacher and how to motivate and create good learners. A good teacher cares more about the student's learning than their own teaching. A good teacher should always be assessing how students are doing and assessing whether an activity is working for all the students. Sometimes teachers are facilitators that set up activities and monitor what is taking place, but they should always be available for questions and willing to work with individuals to help them improve. A good teacher corrects students, but it is better to let students ask questions than to constantly correct them. Constant correction causes a learner to lose motivation. Students need to be able to feel that they are making good progress. They, whether adult or young learner, come in with some motivation to learn. Sometimes that is due to wanting to improve their lives (do better in school, get a better job, etc.) and sometimes it is do to love of learning itself. A teacher should never destroy that natural love, but instead do everything possible to cause it to grow. When students know that the teacher really cares about their learning, then they want to do better and are more willing to share in the positive and caring attitude the teacher creates.
