Passion!!!
One must have passion to be an effective teacher. To have passion as a teacher is to really be into their job. The teacher who has passion for their job always does all they can to be a good teacher. For example, the teacher will put their job above everything else is to have 100 % passion for their job.

Compassion
Compassion, something needed in every classroom. Some teachers don't share this opinion. But a great way to gain respect in the classroom is to have compassion for the students. This means that the teacher cares about the students and wants them to be happy in the classroom, and in general. Compassion, often used to describe lovers, in this case describes the relationship between the teacher and the student.

Respect your Sensei
Respect is a key factor in keeping the classroom in an elementary school organized. It is where one person listens to, and obeys someone else of higher authority, and for those of higher authority, in this case teachers, to adjust to the wants and needs of of those of lesser power, who in this case would be the elementary children. Without respect in the classroom, it would just be a giant moshpit, people not listening, people interrupting, people getting hurt physically and mentally, just utter chaos. So to make it work, a teacher must make sure to establish the fact that s/he is the alpha in the pack, but at the same time not intimidate them so much that they feel they can't even raise their hand in class. Basically the teacher needs to be in control, but let the kids know that s/he will go out of their his/her way to help them with their studies, among other problems. With respect in the classroom, it is like a pansie army camp.
