I think that teachers encourage students by their attitude toward the students and modeled
behavior in the classroom. Teachers need to have knowledge based skills to teach their curriculum.
Students brains are full of creative ideas that I think some teachers overlook and don't take advantage of it. Students imagination is even more valuable in the classroom, because it sets how
far the brain can be inventive. I think that most students in the 21st century will be much more well rounded for the world because they will be able to create new ideas and grow further with there digital identity vursus in the old days where we could rely on our daily identity that would be inventive enough to apply for a job.

Reflectiveness
I feel that being relflective as a teacher is hard for some teachers.
Some teachers feel that a specific person may not be sufficiently critical about ideas
that occur to him or her. To reflect on ourselves as teachers, some people think
that it is the heart of the teaching process. I feel that it could be true the process does make
ones self a stronger teacher and makes them know what skills and methods are working for their classroom. As a student, we never want to admit that we are wrong, so for the normal teenager it is very hard for a student to reflect.

Passion
When I was in High School I was very interested in learning
about my roots and where I came from. I wanted to first learn the
language of my country to be able to communicate with people from
my country. In result I decided to take spanish and my attitude was
extremely excited. However my teacher for spanish was kinda mean
and had a bad attitude towards the students. She was very negative
and neglected the students who were at a slower pace of learning.
I began to loose the passion for my culture and from that day forward
I began to hate the language. However when I came to college my
attitude changed and know I am a spanish minor, but I will never forget
the teacher with the bad attitude.

Compassion
When I was in fifth grade, my teacher
noticed that I was struggling in math.
Instead of letting me keep struggling and
just getting by, he wanted to help me succeed.
He showed his compassion by spending time with me
after school for a couple of hours. He had a great attitude to
help me learn, and get motivated for math. However he just didn't
help me, but he helped other student too that needed compassion!

Respect
In Teaching Education the word, "Respect" gets thrown around a lot.
What do I think respect means in the environment of teaching?
I think respect is used mostly when bad behavior is taking place.
Respect is used to discipline or remind someones responsibility in that
particular situation. Respect is used to show kindness, caring, and forgiving
attitude toward someone.
