While the definition of a good teacher varies from person to person, we can’t deny that those who are have a funny way of remaining in our memories, even after many years. I bet that even reading this sentence made you think of a figure that made the ticking seconds at school much more bearable.

To pay homage and show their hard work doesn’t go unnoticed, Bored Panda has collected some of their most wholesome and heartwarming moments. From gifting plants to drawing cats of the day, these special gestures make students appreciate them even more. 

While you’re busy admiring these awesome teachers, don’t forget to check out a conversation with Bryan Davis, a former teacher and life coach, and Dr. Sonaleena Patnaik Lowry, an educational consultant, who kindly agreed to elaborate on what it means to be a good pedagogue and how we can support them.

    A Girl In My Geography Class Had To Bring Her Newborn To Class Today. The Baby Started Crying In The Middle Of Our Quiz

    A Girl In My Geography Class Had To Bring Her Newborn To Class Today. The Baby Started Crying In The Middle Of Our Quiz

    When she took him out to hold him, my professor insisted that he wouldn't mind feeding the baby and rocking his car seat until she was done. This is my so awesome, sweet professor, on his knees.

    Report

    According to research, teachers impact over 3,000 students throughout their careers. 83% of pupils say that they helped improve their confidence and self-esteem. A similar number of learners report having an educator who encouraged them to follow their dreams, while over half say they received help from them during a difficult time.

    Such numbers tell us that many people dedicate themselves to leaving a positive impact on the minds of our young generation. And we’re very grateful for it. To learn more about what it means to be a good teacher and how we can better support their good work, Bored Panda reached out to Bryan Davis, a former teacher and a life coach from Mentally39.com. We also contacted Dr. Sonaleena Patnaik Lowry, an educational consultant who has experience with projects for school districts and teaching.

    Davis tells us, “Good teachers know their students, they learn their background, they know their home life and learning style. Students will remember the teacher who made them feel safe, cared about them, and made learning fun.”

    Oh my god I’ll never be able to pay attention in the class!! In a good way that is! Once a lecturer of mine brought his lab into the classroom towards the end of what was a practical course and it was instant chaos with all the students going crazy running behind the dog and petting her. The lecturer had to call his wife to come and take the lab home because he couldn’t control the chaos 😅

    Dr. Lowry’s take on this matter is very similar. She says, “There are many different areas that teachers make an impact on in the growth of their students, such as social- emotionally, academically, motivation, helping students set high goals, providing them with support academically and emotionally, believing that their students are capable of learning and creating a positive classroom environment for students.

    Teachers who have a positive impact on students have evidence of supporting students to be successful academically, social-emotionally, and also in student goal-setting and motivation.”

    I'm so appreciative of how hard this woman works to teach her students about more than just academics. She is a strong and beautiful person (whose permission I requested before posting).

    Indeed, just like adults, young personalities need positivity, security, a sense of belonging, and even some fun. It’s important that these requirements are met, as it helps learners progress and have a positive attitude towards learning. Often, teachers achieve this by showing respect for everyone, fostering a sense of community, and celebrating successes. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Being able to engage students with humor and creativity is also a significant part of what makes someone a good teacher. Whether it’s sharing a video, a song, or a movie, or using technology and taking an imaginative approach, children appreciate the extra effort. A teacher dressed in a period costume surely makes history more interesting, while a nature hike can make learning biology more memorable.

    Dorby_ Report

    Even though about 66% of teachers are satisfied with their job, half of them still reported not feeling a great deal of support or encouragement. Davis explains this by saying, ”There is a huge mental strain on teachers. Many people are leaving because of the stress, workload, and unreal expectations set by politicians who do not have a clue what teaching involves. All of it leads to mental and physical health issues.”

    Dr. Lowry notes that the area lacking support the most is collaboration between pedagogues. Luckily, she was able to work with some schools and include them in her Professional Learning Network (PLN), which gave them the opportunity to reach out to teachers from school districts other than their own. 

    She shares, “Many teachers felt supported and uplifted in their teaching practices. Schools that I'm currently working with are meeting with teachers from the schools that their students will promote, such as collaboration between elementary school teachers, middle school teachers, and high school teachers. These teachers are in the same school community, and they collaborate to ensure that each of them is providing the necessary support for students as they move through the school system.”

    Additionally, most educators propose hiring more counselors and school psychologists. They provide more support for students, which simultaneously lightens the workload of teachers. In addition, counselors can aid in creating a more positive school environment by teaching about social-emotional awareness and being one more trusted adult for students to rely on.

    We, as students and parents, can also express our support for teachers in various ways. Davis suggests voting for politicians who place high importance on education, as teacher pay is so far behind.

    He then proposes, “Read with your child, encourage reading, encourage learning, and work towards what you want.” He also encourages people to talk more publicly about the good things the pedagogues and students are accomplishing. “Teachers genuinely care about your kids' education, and we care about their well-being,” Davids adds.

    He draws an insanely realistic face, and when I tell him how awesome it is, he says he likes to draw. He also likes comics so we talk about the Green Lantern Corps because his favorite artist does the comics until his bus is called. Today, he immediately went to the board when the bell rang and started drawing. His bus was called in less than ten minutes yet he was able to do this. I'm going to take pictures of all his doodles this year and give them to him in a book at the end. I hope it reminds him to keep doing what he loves.

    Meanwhile, I had a professor (and have seen others comment about one they had) who got sick of students using Chegg help to get answers to homework and would purposely post on the site false answers so they knew who was “cheating”. The whole purpose of sites like that was to get someone to help explain how to get to answers. Not all students who went on there were lazy.

    Classroom's "Care Cart"

    Classroom's "Care Cart"

    My classroom "Care Cart" has changed and evolved over time. I saw a TikTok video about teachers' "Care Closets" and knew my students needed one too. With community donations and my school's support, I continue to provide my students with extra resources throughout the school day. Spread kindness.

    It's so sad that this is the TEACHER who has to do this from their own salary - and not the parents or the state/city itself who provide the resources (I understand that parents are not always able to do that, but the state/city that the school is in should!)

    Order them un-sliced, then use each one to teach the 17 different ways a pizza can be divided. Lunch becomes another class.

    I Emailed One Of My Professors Asking For Help With A Book, And He Actually Responded

    For additional context, in previous schools, I went through "not-nice stuff," which led to me seeing teachers as those scary authority figures. To paint a proper picture, when one finally treated me like a person who can have problems and not a weirdo, I could barely speak from shock. This e-mail is like a physical reminder that things really got better for me. I don't need to be scared anymore. I am very happy and simply wanted to share it with someone.
