What makes a good teacher?

I can say that the need of forthcoming practice at school scares me a bit.I wonder what qualities both professional and personal I should have for fruitful colloboration either for students or for me.Successful results depend not only on my future pupils, but mostly on me.I think, first of all, I should be just and patient. I also think that teacher should approach his students without preconceptions, he or she shouldn't adopt any special attitude towards them, I mean sterness or light-heartedness, he or she should be natural and open. Secondly, a great teacher should have good professional qualities, the teacher should constantly improve his skills and be aware of the latest innovations, then the lessons would be always interesting and make students respect him or her. The great teacher should be modern, compassionate with the pupils, interested in their life and problems. The most important thing is that the teacher should be a good friend, always reliable and sincere, but the pupils in their turn should be friendly and eager to communicate. And, of course, the appearence is very important. Elegancy and smart look must be approached as a rule.
