Teachers are a core component of education along with students, the process, content, and environment. Good teaching requires expertise in the academic subject, teaching strategies, curriculum, and an understanding of students' characteristics. Motivation is the most important factor educators can target to improve learning. Teachers can motivate students by building relationships, showing enthusiasm, being conscious of small details, valuing students, and knowing their strengths. It is important for teachers to manage stress through relaxation techniques like deep breathing exercises. The educational process should allow students to experience learning in an active way. An effective learning environment supports students' individual differences and empowers them through teamwork and a positive setting.
