1. What are the personality characteristics of excellent teachers?

The personality characteristics of an excellent teacher are mainly reflected in emotional characteristics, will characteristics and leadership style.

(A) the emotional characteristics of teachers

Education is a kind of emotional work. If a teacher is emotionally poor and indifferent, it is impossible for him to do a good job in education and become an excellent teacher. The emotional characteristics of excellent teachers are generally manifested in the following three aspects.

1. Be dedicated and enterprising.

It is mainly manifested in teachers' infinite love and loyalty to education, positive and enthusiastic attitude towards education, high sense of responsibility, obligation, honor and pride, and willingness to devote their lives to the lofty cause of cultivating the next generation for the motherland.

2. Love students and pay attention to the growth of every student.

Loving students is the bounden duty of teachers and the basis and premise of doing a good job in education. First of all, love is the emotional foundation of education. Love is human nature and a universal psychological need. After a child is born, the first thing he gets is the love of his parents. After entering school, teachers become the most important people in their lives, and the demand for "love" naturally shifts to teachers. Many children's reaction to "teacher love" is even stronger than maternal love and father love. Children have a special attachment to the teacher, and their every move is eager for the teacher's affirmation and praise. Teachers' words and deeds, even trusting nods, will give children great comfort and encouragement. In the eyes of children, the image of the teacher is tall, and the love from the teacher is more valuable. Therefore, respecting teachers and stressing morality can be said to be the psychological characteristics of students. A foreign educator once said that the best primary school teachers are not the teachers who impart the most knowledge, but the teachers who love their students the most. Without love, teachers can't really educate students. This is more important for primary school teachers. As a people's teacher, you should love, respect and understand your students, because only by loving him can you care about him; Respect him before asking him; Only by knowing him can we educate him.

Secondly, the exchange of love is the premise of good education. The object of teachers' work is not lifeless and motionless natural materials, but living social people with thoughts, personalities and flesh and blood. In the process of education, there is always spiritual contact between teachers and students. If the teacher's requests and opinions are considered by students to be out of concern and love for them, they will have a positive tendency in emotion and will accept them happily. On the contrary, if the same demands and opinions are regarded by students as teachers deliberately making things difficult, they will close their hearts and be indifferent, and even lead to resistance and confrontation. It can be seen that the trust and friendship between teachers and students have a great influence on education. Teachers' consistent and sincere love for students is the basis of trust between teachers and students, and it is also the premise for students to make a good "response". At the same time, teacher love is an important source of students' positive emotional experience. Practice has proved that when teachers approach students again and again and treat them sincerely, the warm current of love will stir in students' hearts, resulting in "backflow", thus "communication" and "confluence". When students are moved, infected and influenced, they will have a sense of closeness and admiration for teachers, so that the thoughts between teachers and students can be connected and the relationship can be coordinated. The more students trust their teachers, the easier it is for them to accept their demands.

It is worth noting that teachers' love for students should be universal love for all students. As Tao Xingzhi, an educator, said, "Love the whole world" means that teachers should care for every student, regardless of his family background, beautiful appearance and even moral character. Teachers' love for students is undoubtedly the moral love for every student. However, in the process of education and teaching, it is easy for teachers to accept and love students who are excellent, well-behaved and have no physical defects, but it is difficult to love students with moral and behavioral defects. This kind of "love", which can not be treated equally in morality, is not true "teacher love"; "Love" should be a universal love for all students, not a preference.

3. Emotional stability, full of confidence

This is the psychological quality and characteristics of all excellent teachers, and it is also the basic premise and condition for them to do a good job. Especially primary school teachers, working with lively and changeable pupils, often encounter some unexpected emotional events, which requires teachers to maintain a stable mood and be full of confidence in order to calmly deal with problems among students. Someone surveyed 102 excellent teachers in Europe and America, and found that these teachers all have the same characteristics: they believe in their own abilities, are convinced of the value of teachers' work, have an optimistic and positive self-image, and have self-esteem without inferiority. There are also a large number of studies in China that confirm that emotional stability and self-confidence are essential qualities for excellent teachers.

(B) the characteristics of teachers' will

The work of primary school teachers is complicated, trivial, meticulous and hard, and it is difficult to be competent without abundant energy and tenacious will. Teachers' good will quality is mainly manifested in the following aspects.

(1) Clear purpose and persistent pursuit. Teachers must have a clear purpose and a firm intention to achieve the goal if they want to do a good job in education and teaching. In reality, a large number of excellent teachers will encounter all kinds of difficulties and obstacles in education, teaching and even scientific research. It is precisely because of their clear goals and persistent pursuit that they are inspired to overcome all difficulties and move towards success.

(2) Distinguish between right and wrong and be firm and decisive. Teachers have this quality, so that teachers can keep a clear head when facing all kinds of complicated situations and problems, think and analyze the problems carefully, and make choices quickly.

(3) Calm and self-control. "The profession of teachers requires a lot of people, one of which is self-control." In the process of education, teachers often feel distressed and even impatient for some unsatisfactory things. In this case, teachers need to be calm, self-controlled and patient. Teachers are calm, students will naturally be infected and moved, and accept and cooperate wholeheartedly. For young pupils, the teacher's composure and self-control are particularly important, because pupils often feel safe because of the teacher's patience and kindness, and also feel uneasy and afraid because of the teacher's impatience and rudeness. Therefore, it is extremely important for primary school teachers to be good at regulating their own psychology and behavior.

(4) Abundant energy and tenacious perseverance. The school works meticulously and educates everything. When primary school teachers undertake the arduous task of enlightening education and cultivating students in an all-round way, they should pay attention to the children's morning and evening like mothers. Without abundant energy and tenacious perseverance, it is difficult for them to be competent for their work. Therefore, teachers are required to constantly strengthen the cultivation and tempering of their own quality in order to actively adapt to the requirements of teachers' work.
