Both of the teaching styles affected my learning experience. The positive, organized teacher had a good affect on me; however the teacher that was mentioned under negative impact did not have a good impact on my learning experience. There are times when you may have a class that is not your favorite subject, however when you have a teacher that is well organized, and they truly show that they love what they are teaching, it has sparked a curiosity for that subject even though I may not have previously cared for it. On the other hand with the negative teacher, I began to care for the subject matter even less. It was hard to stay focused and motivated through the course work. So this supports the idea that the characteristics of an educator can directly affect the student's perceptions of the classroom atmosphere, the content being taught, as well as the ability of the teacher. If you approach a student with compassion for the content, respect for the student and...
Both styles make a difference in a student experience regardless of being positive or negative.
Suldo et al., (2009) affirmed the ideal that educators can promote wellness in schools through fostering a healthy academic environment. Within a healthy environment, the classroom can become a resilient community that provides essential support and guidance so that vulnerable children can learn and be successful.

Also, it is almost impossible to assess the classes' collective level of interest from email, papers, and responses, for a particular lesson. Interactive technology, even video conferencing, lacks the cohesive nature of one-on-one interaction in the real world as a class. Even though a video conference, a teacher cannot monitor students as closely, assign in-class team assignments, or have as much flexibility over tailoring his or her lesson plan
They computed a variety of measures to determine whether there was in fact a narrowing of a gap between teacher qualifications across wealthier and poorer schools and found that there was. This narrowing -- indicative of changes in hiring practices and policies as a result in NCLB, was positively correlated with improved test scores in those districts with higher poverty populations. The researcher felt there was some possibility, as indicated

Teacher evaluation is a controversial topic. It is often thought by the general public and even some educators that once a teacher rises to a certain level there is little incentive to alter practices based on current research or training and even more alarming the ability for an administrator to terminate a teacher's contract can be difficult. According to surveys of parents and administrators, incompetence in the teaching profession has become
Teaching Style of Lecturing From the ancient Grecian sophists delivering rhetorical oratories to adoring throngs, to the staid scientists presenting analytical treatises to graduate students, vocalizing an organized lecture to a group of students has long been among the hallmarks of traditional educational delivery. The process of arranging complex subject matter within the relatively accessible framework of lecturing affords educators a number of distinct benefits, including the standardization of student exposure
In addition, some schools have year-round schedule (Bureau of Labor Statistics). The multicultural makeup of North American society means that teachers must be able to work with students from a variety of different backgrounds. In many areas of unite it states, minority populations are growing, meaning that teachers will be exposed to students with a variety of different racial, ethnic and religious backgrounds. As such, teachers must be able to
