The section about teachers needing to know their material jumped out at me. Seeing the kids comment on this reinforced my belief on this matter.
The fear of not knowing the material I will be teaching has haunted me for the last few years knowing I wanted to go into this profession. I have always felt that the teacher needs to have mastered the subject that they are teaching. When I come out of college, I want to be able to know my subject well enough so that my future students will come out of my class feeling like they learned something and that their teacher knows what he is talking about.

5/5 Good QR. But also, don't be afraid to model good learning strategies for your students when you admit that you don't know an answer and will work with them to find out.
