The teachers, being the focal figure in education must be competent and knowledgeable in order to impart the
knowledge they could give to their students. Good teaching is a very personal manner. Effective teaching is
concerned with the students as a person and with his general development. The teacher must recognize individual
differences among his/her students and adjust instructions that best suit to the learners. t is always a fact that as
educators, we play varied and vital roles in the classroom. Teachers are considered the light in the classroom. !e are
entrusted with so many responsibilities that range from the very simple to most comple" and very challenging job.
Everyday we encounter them as part of the work or mission that we are in. t is very necessary that we need to
understand the need to be motivated in doing our work well, so as to have motivated learners in the classroom. !hen
students are motivated, then learning would easily take place. #owever, motivating students to learn re$uires a very
challenging role on the part of the teacher. t re$uires a variety of teaching styles or techni$ues just to capture
students% interests. &bove all, the teacher must himself come into possession of ade$uate knowledge of the
objectives and standards of the curriculum, skills in teaching, interests, appreciation and ideals. #e needs to e"ert
effort to lead children or students into a life that is large, full, stimulating and satisfying. 'ome students seem naturally
enthusiastic about learning, but many need or e"pect their instructors or teachers to inspire, challenge or stimulate
them. (Effective learning in the classroom depends on the teacher%s ability to maintain the interest that brought
students to the course in the first place )Erickson, *+-. ot all students are motivated by the same values, needs,
desires and wants. 'ome students are motivated by the approval of others or by overcoming challenges.
Teachers must recognize the diversity and comple"ity in the classroom, be it the ethnicity, gender, culture, language
abilities and interests. Getting students to work and learn in class in largely influenced in all these areas. 0lassroom
diversity e"ists not only among students and their peers but may be also e"acerbated by language and cultural
differences between teachers and students.
'ince 1223, many foreign professional teachers particularly from the 4hilippines came in ew 5ork 0ity to teach with
a little knowledge of &merican school setting. 6ilipino teachers have distinct styles and e"pressions of teaching. They
e"pect that7 education is interactive and spontaneous8 teachers and students work together in the teaching9learning
process8 students learn through participation and interaction8 homework is only part of the process8 teaching is an
active process8 students are not passive learners8 factual information is readily available8 problem solving, creativity
and critical thinking are more important8 teachers should facilitate and model problem solving8 students learn by being
actively engaged in the process8 teachers need to be $uestioned and challenged. #owever, many 6ilipino teachers
encountered many difficulties in teaching 50 public schools. 'ome of these problems may be attributed to7
students% behavior such as attention deficiency, hyperactivity disorder, disrespect among others8 and language barrier
such as accent and poor understanding of language other than English )e.g. 'panish.
