Why Teachers Fail

This is from Teacher Orientation, and our Preacher came up before lunch and spoke on this topic. I thought since many are home school parents and teachers that I would share this with you. Unfortunately I didn't get all the points, but I will get the rest tomorrow.

Why Teachers Fail Heb 5:12
1. Teachers fail because they aren't willing to change.
2. Teachers fail because they wont' take correction Prov 9:8
3. Teachers fail because they don't personally know the material II Tim 2:15
4. Teachers fail because they don't have a walk with God - Be Christ Like!
5. Teachers fail because they are not organized - Isaiah 28:10
Be readable by your students, they do know you.
6. Teachers fail because they lead and respond by emotion not by principle. Jeremiah 17:9
7. Teachers fail because they don't review the material immediately before teaching.
8. Teachers fail because they won't put a fresh coat of paint on an old lesson.

(I'll get 9-12 tomorrow)

Just a few thoughts as you prepare to teach your children or someone elses children. Are you going to fail or succeed??
