VOICES AND REFLECTIONS - GLASOVI IN RAZMIŠLJANJA A great teacher Teachers can be good or bad; some are even great. A great teacher is someone who explains the subject clearly and at a slow pace. They ask their students at the end of the lesson if there is anything they don’t understand. They should treat all students equally and always be available for help. Outstanding teachers are usually funny, interesting, and understanding. They get along with students, and some of them can even inspire them. I was inspired by a primary school teacher. She was very kind, funny, and helpful. She showed us that not all teachers are strict. I believe she even had some influence on my life. I’m not exactly sure what I want to do in life, but if I become a teacher, I would like to be like her. Teaching could be more interesting if teachers used more photos or funny examples. It depends on the subject, but we could study outdoors, seeing things in real life rather than on a screen. That would particularly apply to biology or chemistry. The student - teacher relationship varies from teacher to student. I think the relationship has changed in recent years. Years ago, if a student had a complaint or problem with a teacher, he would talk to the teacher directly, and they would resolve the issue together. Nowadays, parents and students are interfering in almost every aspect of their child's life, whether it's been done wrongfully or not. Parents have more complaints than students. Not all parents, but some of them, cannot let their child out of the nest; they stick their nose into everything. That makes working for teachers hard and sometimes almost impossible. I really hope that in the future, they will let teachers do the work and trust their children to take care of themselves. My advice to teachers is to be a little more understanding, a little more funny, and a little more strict. Just be who you are and treat everyone equally. That is all you need to be a great teacher.
