What would the ideal teacher be like?

Patient, not just book-smart but also street-smart and worldly, well-travelled. Able to handle stress (with patience and kindness).

by Antoinette Tan

Patient, firm, and able to teach multiple ways to suit different children's/people's needs.

I totally agree with you, you got my vote :)

I think a teacher needs to be kind, considerate, calm and thoughtful yet firm when the need arises.

Someone who can really be a role model in every way, who inspires you to reach your highest potential, a visionary and a friend.
