Honest has Caring and Strict as part of the meaning. A strict teacher who cares about a student are honest because they critic and advise the student to be better.
I agree. Too many times a teacher is 'used' by kids who have learned to manipulate a caring person. An Honest person can see though the manipulation, and still be strict and caring.

Honesty is the most important regardless of whether we are talking elementary, high school, or university teaching. If a teacher is honest then they will not be in the teaching field if they are not honest with themselves about whether they have the intelligence to be teachers, if they are not caring enough to be patient with the students pace at which they learn, and whether or not they are strict enough to command a student's attention but not so strict to be considered mean by anyone who knows the difference between right and wrong.
An honest teacher will know if they have what it takes to be a good teacher, so it is most important.
Intelligence. Allows you to understand the material, and whether other people are getting it or not. The rest is up to the students. You can't make someone want to learn.
I'm not sure that's true, but I might agree in the case of very young children.
I mean, students make it through university all the time, and the professors certainly don't care whether you pass or fail -- they can't, they simply have too many students. It's up to the students (and/or their parents) to provide the motivation.

I would say consistency. As long as they know what they want and don't change the rules on you halfway through the year/assignment, I'm fine.

Right on.
I dont really understand your question (I think it is grammatical incorrect).
The question is grammatically correct, but three of the four answers are not.
Honesty, Intelligence, Strictness.
Ohh...I knew SOMETHING was wrong ^^
lol sorry
Intelligence. Allows you to understand the material, and whether other people are getting it or not. The rest is up to the students. You can't make someone want to learn.
But if they don't care, the student is doomed to failure.

i agree.
I think it depends on the students and subject. What makes a good math teacher is different to what makes a good English teacher.
