My expectation of this class are to have fun and learn a lot about the English language, grammer, and all that fun stuff.
Some expectations I have for my teacher is for her to give me the information not just through a text book but be able to give us the information in many different forms.
A good teacher should be supportive, understanding, and make learning something people want to do, but most of all they should love being a teacher.
A good student is dedicated, hard working, determined, and gives their best in all that they do.

In this class I hope my teacher will make the class enjoyable and be there when I need help. I would like her to be fun and encouraging.
Qualities of a good teacher are that the teacher as the leader understands how students look to he/she for help. They should have empathy for students and be friendly and enerjetic. Students like when the teacher is envolved with them! They should challenge students in a way that dosn't send them in to spiraling depression.
Qualities of a good student are that they are orginized and prepared. Openminded. Entusiastic and egar to learn.
I hope to Have fun and make friends. I want english to be a comfortable enviorment for everyone so they can express them self freely!
As my teacher i would expect you to encourage me to learn help me when needed and to come up with neat ways to learn so i am not falling asleep in your class (but keep things slightly dificult it is afterall a honors class!).
The qualities of a good teacher are that they can connect with the students and make learning fun. They should teach things in a creative and enjoyable way. They should be easygoing but also challenging so that we can learn things but in a fun way.
The qualities of a good student are that they need to be open to learning new things, have an open mind, take risks, be dedicated, motivated, pay attention in class, listen to the teacher, and to have fun while learning.
In this class I hope to become a better writer and to be open to different types of writing and not just one or two. Also I want to be in a fun environment where I can learn without getting bored with what I am learning.
I hope that you will teach me new things in a fun and creative way, that you will be supportive and challenging. I also hope that you will mix up what you are teaching us so that we can learn a variety of things. Also that I will come to love English even more than I do now!
1. I beleive that a good teacher has a passionate heart for their subject and knows their material well. Someone who wants to see their students succeed in all of their endeavours and be there to help them along the way.
2. To be a good student is to in turn have a passion and desire to learn. Take pride in your work and commit to do your very best. Keep goals and strive to acheive them. Learning is a two way street, your teachers need to work and listen to you and vice versa.
3. I expect to enjoy the class and improve my knowledge about the qualities of a good writer.
4. I expect that my teacher will be patient when i am frustrated and confused. I also think that she will challenge us to be creative and to expand are knowledge of writing and literature. And most of all I expect her to be hard-working and upbeat about enjoying english and the class in general.
Some qualities of a good teacher are that they are enregenic and always excited to teach their subject in a way that makes the students want to learn about it. They are also considerate to their students and give them a reasonable amount of time to do the assigned work.
Good students come prepared to class every day, pay attention when they need to, complete/turn in all assignments on time, and have fun in their class.
I expect it to be fun and enjoyable, but challenging at the same time. The reason that everybody in the class singed up for an honors class is because they wanted more of a challenge than a regular English class.
I expect you to have an upbeat attitude in class and to make our learning experience fun. We are more likely to remember you and the things you taught us if we have a good time learning it.
Qualties of a good teacher are someone who's fun, understanding and challenging at the same time. someone who will push and make us work but makes it enjoyable at the same time.
Qualities of a good student are organized, willing to push themselves and learn, and put a good efort into the class.
I hope to have fun in this class and learn as much as i can.
I hope my teacher will make the class fun to be in and challenge me. I hope to come out of the class with a better understanding in English.
A good teacher must have a willingness to help their students. If a teacher is not willing to help, they are, essentially, not willing to teach. The teacher must also show their willingness; otherwise they would give a false impression to the students. I think that in order to show that, they need to be friendly and capable of making their students feel comfortable. An uncomfortable mind can easily become a closed mind, cutting itself off from everything, including learning new material being taught.
On the same note, a student needs to have an open mind, an accepting attitude that allows them to look at everything without a previous opinion gnawing at the back of their head. They need to be willing to learn just as much as the teacher is willing to teach, and be able to be flexible and rise to the standards the teachers need them to be at. It’s a partnership between teacher and student.
For this class, I would like to be able to learn about English in a way that’s not boring for me, but other than that I’m not really expecting anything but an enjoyable semester. Same goes for the teacher-I don’t have a certain experience in mind, just an enjoyable and interesting course.
Qualities of a good teacher are being understanding, patience, a little strict, and creative!
The Qualities of a good student are: Organization, determination, hard work, and creativity.
I expect to perfect my english, and have fun while doing so. As my teacher, I hope help will be given if I ask, the ability to prevent me from getting bored! Most importantly, I hope you will help me imporve my english.
Qualities of a good teacher are to be fun and funny, happy with a good attitude, easy to talk to, helpful and understanding.
Qualities of a good student are to show up to class, participate in class, do their homework, and to do their best.
In this class i hope to learn more literature and better grammar and i want to read all of the books she asks me too. I want to have fun in this class.
I hope that my teacher will be able to connect with my class and help me see deeper into literature and challenge me so i have to do my best and lastly, hopefully she wont assign too much homework (wishful thinking, I know).
Some qualities good teachers often possess are the abilities to make subjects seem fun by keeping the class involved, and interacting with the students. Good teachers are blessed with the talent of making jokes and keeping the class lively, without letting it get out of hand to the point where students begin to disrupt the class.
Good students have other qualities which are mainly their abilities to focus their attention on the teacher and what he or she is saying while taking notes and asking questions, if only to research later. Getting homework done and studying before doing anything else is also important.
Before I came to school on Tuesday I was expecting my Honors English class to be one of my more exciting classes, and so far, I have not been let down. I choose to attend an honors class because I wanted a challenge, and I hope I will not be let down there, either.
I do not have many expectations for you as a teacher, except that you do your best to be what I described a good teacher to be. Based upon the first day you have exceeded expectations, and I will strive to do the same.
A good teacher has specific qualities that make them excellent. For Instance, the teacher must be original, wise, challening, and lively.
The qualities that good students have are intelligent, bold, inspiring, and enthusiastic.
Being able to have fun while learning and having great discussions are my expections for this class.

I expect we will learn a lot from the teacher, and we will be challenged. I also expect to the teacher to give us help when we need it.
I find a good teacher always knows the strenghts and limitations of the class he or she teaches. They will also challange the students when they are on par with the material and are losing interest. Their attitude is positive, but stern when necessary. The attitude of the teacher is the attitude of the student.
Good students are those who are prepaired for the challenges that the cirriculum will bring. Organization, punctuallity, and good work ethic are good examples. In addition, the student should be willing to ask questions and seek new challenges when he or she is falling behind or ahead of the class.
I have high expectations of the challenges of this class. However, it is because of these challenges that I chose to participate in honors English. English has always been one of my strongest subjects, and though it is not my favorite, I will rise to the challenge.
There really isn't much I expect of any teacher; I have always found a way to grow accidemically with any teacher. My English teachers tend to be energetic and fun-loving. Just by today, the tradition isn't ending yet. However, I expect challenges and a Great Year!

I expect that you will make the class enjoyable so I am not thinking "oh great english" while also teaching us lots of new things that will not just help us in class work but throughout our lives.
There are many qualities a good teacher should have. First of all, a good teacher must know how to keep the attention of the students. Otherwise, we'll get bored and become more unwilling to learn. A good teacher also must be creative. Pushing the students while still keeping interest is extremely important.
Good students should have a will to learn. Without it, school is going to be difficult. They should be determined to succeed and do everything in their power to do so.

Something I would like to get out of Mrs. Moritz's English class
would be a better understanding for the subject. I would like to look back at the end of the semester and know that I have accomplished much and had a good time doing it.
I hope that as a teacher you can make learning fun while at the same time challenging. It's always good to see an enthusiastic teacher at the front of the class because knowing you want to be there helps us as students be more willing to learn.

I expect this class to not be easy in a way that it challenges me, and that i learn more on writing becoming a better writer, to read interesting novels, and to be fun since you're the teacher!!!

I hope that you, as a teacher, will provide us with knowledge, and yet allow us some time to relax and get to know the other students. I hope that you have high expectations for the class, give us a challenge, and offer assistance when needed.
I believe that a teacher should really love what she is doing and also loves coming to school evey day. A teacher is fun, good sense of humor, and works hard
A good student is organized, pays attention in class, works hards, is well rounded, and is respectful to students and teachers alike.
In this english class this year, I want to enjoy the class while learning about english itself. I also want to become a stronger tech writer.
I believe that our teacher should be energetic, loves what she does, and is fun loving. I also believe that Mrs. Moritz should work with kids indiviualy so they can reach beyond their potentail.
Good teachers know how to excite their students about the subject matter by being energetic, outgoing, and fun when they teach. A droaning teacher will bore their students and as a result the students will not pay attention and learn nothing. A teacher should just love to teach and have a passion for helping others. Good students can accept critisism gracefully and learn from their mistakes to produce a better outcome the next time around, no matter how emotionally attached they were to their original work. I expect to learn how to think in this class, because essentially that is what school is for, to develop the brain and learn to think for oneself. I hope that my teacher will encourage me in my escapades, while also helping me learn about reality.
Qualities of a good teacher i think is the ability to help a student if they are struggling. Teach in ways that effectively teach them and definately eliminate the busy work. A good student is hard working, organized, and willing to ask for help if they need it. I hope this class teaches me alot without all the busy work. I hope i feel comfortable and confident that i know what I'm doing. I hope that you challenge me and don't bore me to death! I want you to give me the chance to be creative and to prove to you that I know what I am doing. :)

Also, a teacher who is able to understand that English isn't our only class that we get HW in. The final, most important aspect of a good teacher is that we are able to learn in a fun and creative way.
There are many unique qualities that a good teacher should have. They need to be both strict and nice. They need to be strict so that students don't slack off or be disruptive, but they also need to be nice so that they can connect with their students. They also need to be creative and tough so that students are not bored, and they are challenged.

I think a good teacher has to like the subject they're teaching, and they have to enjoy teaching it. A good teacher needs to be interesting to listen to, a droning teacher is not someone I would like to have teaching me; I think they should try (and succeed) at making the subject fun and interesing so the student is not looking at the clock frequently.
I think a good student should want to learn, to be eager to do the best they can at everything. I'm not saying they should be an overachiever, but I'll also say that some traits a good student should have are: organization, determined, hard working, and they should also enjoy thier classes, rather than being focused and serious all the time.
I want to learn a lot in this class, and I want to have fun in it; I hope that it will be an exciting experience for me, and I hope that I can do the best I can.
