***"SLC / S22W5 :Teachers as examples and role models"***
Explain why teachers need to be examples and role models for students
A teacher is a life transformer for students,he is the one a student mostly spend time with, gets information which forms the knowledge of the students and gets corrections from.A teacher is like a strong tower that determines the strength of the students,he is the life coach of his student.These are reasons why not a only a teacher but every teacher should endeavor to be a perfect example and role model to their students.
How much influence does this have on students behavior and character?
The influence of a teacher on students is like 80% of the teacher's life in a student,it could be liken to the words of Christ to us " as He is so are we in this world"1John 4:17.Teachers influence on students is a profound one because their job does not only end within the walls of a classroom,the teachers are the wisdom that forms the brain of the students that's why a student's behavior and character is traceable to his teacher, they shape the character, aspiration and future of the students.this is really the extent at which teachers influences the students behavior and character.
Negative behaviors of teachers
Laziness is one of the negative behavior found in some teachers,most teachers are unable to see their student as their child and this is the reason why some teachers do not realize that they are the eyes of the students.
Some teachers don't give attention to students need,they are not consistent in job and unwilling to teach.these are some negative behaviors found in some teachers.
Positive behaviors implemented in my daily life with students
My good relationship with my students is the first thing i implement in them daily as it teaches them to love, respect, value and accommodate each other,i made them have fun with learning instead of fear,I implemented time management to them, being disciplined, being careful with their choice of words for everyone and above all having a caring heart for their parents.
The educational value contend in my behavior to my students is in their ability to study without being pushed,presents speeches before audience without fear and even teach their young ones
What benefit do you feel from the exemplary behavior shown so far,has it had a positive impact on the students?
The benefit i felt from my behavior to my students is that i see a bright future in them on daily basis,i see leaders of tomorrow and not hoodlums,i see voice to the voiceless.The impact of my behavior to my students has made great positive change in every area of their live including their spiritual aspect.
The character and behavior of students is majorly based on the teacher's,a nagging teacher will definitely produce nagging students. We are all teachers of life in various ways and we cannot afford to leave a negative print in our students because there's nothing that can erase what has been written in the heart of a child.
