R-VOICE: What’s the most valuable quality a teacher can have?

INTERVIEWED STUDENTS AT CORONADO HIGH SCHOOL

ANDREW CHOUDHRY, JUNIOR

“When a kid addresses a problem, the teacher has an open mind to the student’s perspective. I don’t like when they treat it like ‘my way or the highway.’”

KATIE MONACO, SENIOR

“Being able to teach a lesson that’s more appealing to teens and not boring.”

MORGAN SMITH, SENIOR

“They are understanding of students’ individual circumstances.”

DAVID RICHARDS, SOPHOMORE

“Being understanding of students’ other classes and extracurricular activities.”

MICHAEL SCHWOB, FRESHMAN

“To be likable and encourage the students to work harder and learn more. Students don’t like teachers who are mean.”

JORDAN WUNDERLI, SOPHOMORE

“Patience because not everyone gets stuff at the same time.”
