teacher here:

1. being able to do anything in the classroom that uses tech without it! for instance schools want us to have kids always use scratch but they usually skip out on game development and just do games developed from community like geometry dash. if schools want kids to learn code for instance teach it to them with as little tech as possible because they will misuse it. 2. being able to do things that get a positive reaction from kids. for instance always read books with a funny voice you can do rather than your usual voice. 3. understanding attention spans is critical. kids can only pay attention for minutes that equal their age. for instance a 5 year old can give you 5 mins for teaching and a 10 yo can give you 10 mins. then give brain break for 5 mins then get back to the teaching part is how lecturing has to work rather than droning on. 4. represent any any any data and info in a unique way. this is why people like youtube videos for instance where a story is told through drawings rather than a voice over a powerpoint. 5. being good with kids is 90% of teaching. 10% is the teaching part.
