CHAPTER V
PERSONALITY
OUTLINE--CHAPTER V
The six major qualities:--a. Sympathy.--b. Sincerity.--c.
Optimism.--d. Scholarly att.i.tude.--e. Vitality.--f. Spirituality.
To set about to cultivate separate qualities would be rather a discouraging undertaking. As a matter of fact, many of the characteristics named really overlap, while others are secondary in importance. For practical purposes let us enlarge upon five or six qualities which everyone will agree are fundamental to teaching success.
The cla.s.s in Teacher Training, at the Brigham Young University, in the summer of 1920, named these six as the most fundamental:
1. Sympathy.
2. Sincerity.
3. Optimism.
4. Scholarly att.i.tude.
5. Vitality.
6. Spirituality.
No attempt was made to set them down in the order of relative importance.
1. SYMPATHY
