Answer 7

In my view, passion is the most important characteristic in a teacher for two reasons.

First, a teacher’s passion motivates students.
For example, when I was in High School, we read the novel The Great Gatsby. I hated it. But my English teacher was really passionate whenever we talked about it, which pushed me to look at the book more closely and spend more time studying.

Second, a teacher’s passion motivates the teacher.
For example, my chemistry teacher in university loved inorganic chemistry. I could tell he spent a lot of time preparing his lectures because he enjoyed explaining to us how nature was really just chemistry.

That’s why I believe that passion is the most important characteristic.
