Types of Teachers

Teachers have been always very important for human beings. Their duty is very big because they are responsible from children and children are our future. Like everybody can be, teachers also can be different from each other. If we want to classify them, we can see three types of teacher.

 The first type is, authoritarian teachers. They are very hard to change, they apply discipline more than it requires. Besides, they always want their students to obey them, otherwise they punish with very hard punishments. They are always alone while giving courses and they want to continue it alone, too. In opposition to they should do, they do not allow their students to share their ideas. As you can imagine, in this type of teachers’ lessons students cannot be successful because they generally do not like their lessons.

The second type is, unconcerned teachers who actually do not like their job so they are not interested in their students. They are neither hard nor supporter for their students. They do not expect responsibility from the students and they also do not try to make them responsible. They usually do not have any aims and they show it to their students that’s why their students fell free and empty. Students who are taught by these teachers, cannot focus on their lessons so they cannot be successful.

The last type is, tolerant teachers that work with a big pleasure because they love what they do.  This type of teachers knows their students well. If their students do something which requires glory, they bless them. They can accept criticisms and they give importance on what their students think and say. They are also very good guides; additionally they have aims and plans so their students know what to do, too. They prepare their lessons with students and always trust and support them. They do not punish, if they really do not need to. In addition they are always objective. We can guess their students that love their lessons and teachers so they can success everything which are expected.

In conclusion, as I mentioned there are three types of teachers. We can see all of them in the same school because people are different. Types can differ from person to person but we can understand that teachers’ behaviours are effective on their students.
