A two-year-old’s experience at Preschool serves as their introduction to the world of education. Preschool teachers must cultivate a fun and safe learning environment where preschoolers can learn social skills, make friends, and express themselves openly and creatively. While no two preschool teachers are ever identical, beloved teachers share a number of common qualities.

Here are some of the qualities a preschool teacher should have to get loved by preschoolers:

• Personality
  Working with two-year-old preschool children requires patience, creativity, enthusiasm, and a love for education. Strong teachers foster a classroom environment in which all students are comfortable and feel supported by the teacher and each other. These teachers must reach both the children and their parents, which includes developing and maintaining strong home-school communication.

• Knowledge
  Teachers should be knowledgeable about their student population and the academic subject matter at hand. Teaching requires a devotion to life-long learning that extends well beyond degree programs. Early childhood teachers must seek out regular opportunities to further their teaching skills and knowledge bases.

• Classroom Management
  Managing a classroom of young children can be a challenging task. An early childhood teacher is able to maintain a classroom environment that is both educational and fun. Children should be able to learn while they play in an engaging and motivating setting. A respected teacher is viewed as an authority figure, but does not scare the children.

• Dedication
  A high degree of dedication is a necessary component of being a great teacher for any student population. Even though teaching the preschoolers can be exhausting and frustrating, it can be extremely rewarding. Dedicated teachers can look past the bad days and keep focusing on the good days that make the job worthwhile.

Preschool teachers must strongly believe in what they are doing and be fully dedicated to every student in the class.
