Answer 2

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Although I didn't see the following on the site you were given, I'd say be sure you have 2 characteristics:

1. you really students of the age group you plan to teach

2. have patience because often you will explain the same thing many different ways until everyone understands it

Let me add a third one: be fair!
