Teachers with energy or teacher with experience

Interesting story with an interesting dilemma: would you rather have a teacher with lots of energy or one with lots of experience teaching?

I think it would be better to have a teacher with experince. If the teacher just has energy than they would not be able to sit and teach as ateacher with experince. A teacher with experince would be able to help the students and teach them better because they are more focused on the students. I am guessing that you would be a experince teacher, because you would rather read and learn more than a teacher like fran that would rather wrestle kids or talk about his old stories.

I thind a teacher with a combonation of exerience and energy would be the best teature because theyre fun to be around keep you awake and learn about the students dont just puke out information for the students to learn

Honestly? I would rather have a teacher with energy. Obviously, if they are a teacher and are qualified for the position, they better know their crap. So, why not have a fun, energetic teacher that will keep you alert and learning, rather than asleep and not learning anything?

I like teachers who have a combination of both energy and experience, because, depending on the subject and what you are interested in, it is necessary to stay awake in order to learn unless you learn through osmosis or something, but the teacher also needs to know what he/she is talking about.

I think teachers with experience are alot better. Because if the person has good energy they can still have no clue on how to run the class or make them do their work, but a person with experience has done this before and might know the kids and they have ways that will get the students to do their work.

Definately energy. Teachers with energy make me want to learn through various, exciting ways. When teachers make the material interesting, the students that dont really care will even show effort. Some teachers that i have in school have much experience and they seem to be extremly monatone. When teachers teach this way it puts people to sleep. Mrs. Hanson teaches with energy and through prior experience, and her class is a blast even if it is difficult.

I think i would definitely prefer a teacher with a combo of both energy and experience. If they had experience, they obviously know how to teach, so why not be energetic and make the class fun? I think i learn better when i go through a class full of energy and laughing, while still learning a lot. Fun analogies for things, and other energetic things help me to remember things especially for tests.
