Studies prove that having the right credentials isn\u2019t an overwhelming factor in making a significant difference in the classroom.<\/p>\n<p>Educators who receive Teacher of the Year Awards excel in passion and personality. The ability to engage students in a passionate and excitable manner will go a long way in getting students to see that learning can be fun and engaging.<\/p>\n<p>Teachers who don\u2019 have much personality and passion in the way of engaging and empowering students often have a tough time convincing student that education has a significant purpose in the world.<\/p>\n<p>Many teachers who experience burnout usually don\u2019t have or have lost the passion for making an emotional and intellectual difference in the classroom.<\/p>\n<p>So, does Teaching credentials matter. Yes! But, so does inward qualities. To become an effective <a href=\"http:\/\/educator\">educator,<\/a> you must have passion and personality as well. Without these two qualities, your credentials will only provide you with a mechanical approach to transforming the lives of 21<sup>st<\/sup> century students.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Need for Teachers with Passion and Personality<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A teacher who can bring creativity and excitement to a classroom will win the hearts and minds of today\u2019s students. Students want teachers who allow them to be active and free to express their ideas and opinions. Students desire classrooms in which engagement and challenge are the order of teaching and instructions.<\/p>\n<p>Without teachers who demonstrate excitement for education it is hard to imagine how students will develop a mindset for academic success. Positive energy is contagious. When teachers go the extra mile to make learning an exciting adventure, students also respond with confidence and productivity.<\/p>\n<p>Teaching credentials are necessary, as far as knowledge and skill are concerned, but passion and personality are equally as important.<\/p>\n<p>Are you ready to Shine and make a difference in the classroom?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c  no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 339px; left: 20px;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Teaching credentials represent the knowledge,skills and expertise necessary to prepare students for 21st century living.
