Answer 1

i could write a book about this. but the short answer: the one that teaches you to think and make you use of your brain.

Answer 2

alright, here's a longer answer :)

a teacher should be proficient in his/her chosen field. not that he/she should only know "what" he/she is teaching, keeping up with recent advancement/development in the field is a must, too.

a teacher should be proficient in paedagogical knowledge. should know "how" to teach, know the psychology of the student and effective teaching methods.

a teacher should make use of available technology. presentations, videos, simulations, experiments, expeditions... applying to many senses as possible (seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, and even tasting).

the teacher should involve the student in the learning process. in experiments etc. the student should get his/her hands dirty.

the teacher should stimulate and raise the interest of the student by asking relevant questions when starting to teach. an interested mind learns better.

with targeted questions the teacher should aid the student to find the right answers by themselves, to make them "think"!
