5.1 Discuss three (3) roles of effective teachers.
1. Facilitator of learning: Effective teachers create a stimulating and engaging learning environment that encourages students to actively participate in their own learning. They guide students through the learning process, providing necessary resources and support, but ultimately empowering students to take ownership of their learning.
2. Developer of critical thinking skills: Effective teachers help students develop critical thinking skills by encouraging them to analyze information, ask questions, and evaluate evidence. They challenge students to think outside the box and consider different perspectives, fostering a culture of curiosity and intellectual growth.
3. Mentor and role model: Effective teachers serve as mentors and role models for their students, demonstrating good character and setting high expectations for academic achievement and behavior. They provide guidance, support, and encouragement to help students navigate challenges and achieve their full potential. Effective teachers also cultivate positive relationships with their students, earning their trust and respect.
