This essay describes about the writer’s ideal lecturer. In the following paragraph the writer is going to describe two characteristics and actions that, in writer opinion, a lecturer should have.


What characteristics should a lecturer has? To begin with, a lecturer should be creative. This is important because they need to create varied learning approaches or methods. For example, when students are classed in two different categories :one category is those who have got score higher than six, while the other is below six, a lecturer should prepare at least two learning approaches. The second characteristic is that a lecturer should be a communicative person. The reason is that they have to teach students. This means that they must have an ability to convey ideas. For instance, when students find lecturer’s explanation very obscure and ask the lecturer to elucidate, if the lecturer is not communicative, he may find it difficult.



Not only characteristics are the vital part of an ideal lecturer, but actions also have the same role. A lecturer has to prepare teaching material before commencing the learning process in class. This is important because they have to think about the synchronization between teaching materials and learning process goals. For example, if the goal of this week’s meeting is that students can determine the main idea and developing sentences of a paragraph, a lecturer have to prepare materials that are suitable to the goal. Furthermore, they also must conduct researches as regards the responsibility they hold in their job. The main reason is that a lecturer, as an academic, has to develop their expertise in their subject and acquire a new knowledge in their field of study. For example, HIV/AIDS, which is relatively new disease, is one of the malignant diseases, if in the past lecturers in field of study did not conduct a research, they might not know more about the disease and its characteristics.


Overall, I think that characteristics and actions hold an essential role to shape an ideal lecturer.
