Being a 21st Century Teacher
What makes a good teacher?
Nowadays, to be a good teacher, you have to:
- be close to the students
- sing a lot, teach trough singing as you can
- love teaching
- don't be a "teacher", that means explain less and practice more
- avoid homework, because students have their own life after the school
The ideal teacher leads, not imposes.
The ideal teacher is understanding, wants to learn, puts the student in the centre, connects with the students, is collaborative, is sociable.

I hear and I forget,

Confucius

- Complete some of the abstract forms to become known forms, objects, animals...
- Close your eyes and draw what you want
- On a line, mark the most important events from your life
