If you were a teacher, what kind of teacher would you be?

Are you going to be the mean but discipline one?
or

the kind of stupid patient clever one?
or
the smart warm and caring one?


First picture, mean teacher, you gain two things: respect and fear.
Second picture, stupid but clever, oh Man no matter how clever you are, but if you are too stupid and patient in dealing with your students 1 thing you'll surely get: disrespect.
Third picture, you'll definitely get respect from all students.
All I can say here is you can be any kind of teacher you want to be depend on the students' conditions you're facing of. This is what it's called teaching technique. As what I taught, teachers are "pretenders". It's not literally pretenders anyway. It's like for example when we are in a bad mood, we gotta hide it from our students or else we're not going to be professional. It is right though that they are just students, but first they are our customers, second it's for the sake of our own self value, third it's to build the belief among us.

For almost 1 year I've become a teacher, somehow I found myself is fond of teaching. I found it difficult at first, but the children successfully make me realized that teaching is beautiful. Anyway, it's not only about teaching but educating as well. Educating is surely difficult because we are to shape their ways of thinking, habits, manners, while teaching is slightly easy because everyone can be teachers. A robber for example, he shows someone how to rob, well that's teaching. That's why, the profession as teacher is not that we merely teach but we educate people's children and in order to do that, we gotta understand them deeply. Hard man but FUN!
