Passionate and Creative English Teacher

   There are many types of English teachers around the world. In Korea, to be specific, there are also a lot of different English teachers at school or academy and etc. So I have met various types of English instructors. I had them since I was a kindergartener to high school student, but I have only one role model in my whole life. I met him when I was 10, and I learned what an English teacher should have to receive respect from students. To become an idealistic English teacher, I need passion and creativity.
   To begin with, I think an ideal English teacher needs passion. He must not be late for class or cancel the class. Also, the teacher needs to develop himself to be prepared at all times. My role model, Mr. Jang Mok Moon, was always accurate on time. When he caught a flu and had fever, he proceeded the lesson and I thought he was amazing. Without passion, that would not be possible from the first place. Also, he studied English more than 15 years, but he continues to catch up on new American dramas and new expressions. He never got lazy. I have seen many teachers who lacks in professionalism and self development. When I was in high school, some teachers were worse than some students in understandings of English. This is due to laziness or lack of passion. An ideal English teacher needs passion.
   Moreover, an ideal English teacher needs creativity. Since the teaching methods are all similar, students become bored and the efficiency falls. He must come up with unique teaching method to enhance the delivery of speech and draw the students' attention. My role model used to teach me English with Disney animations and American dramas. He emphasized listening and repeating. He also encouraged me when studying grammar and spelling. Grammar turned into an easier field since he did not use the complicated terminology like other English instructors who try look smart. He invented his own words to help memorizing, and even when I got the spelling mistake, he said it was okay because it was written exactly what the word sounded like. An ideal English instructor needs creativity.
   To sum up, a perfect English teacher needs passion and creativity so that he will not be lost on finding appropriate job. Also, the passion and creativity counts a lot to the safe growing procedure of a child.
Passion will shield the laziness and make the teacher prepared and focused. Creativity will differentiate the teacher among the teachers and make him to be deeply participated in a class.
