Conclusion

Being ideal teacher in South Africa means a lot for the education system considering the
past imbalances that we faced as a country. The South African schools are faced with

lots of challenges and one of them is teacher learner ratio. The most qualified teachers

have to bear the challenges of work overload, overcrowded classrooms and
administration work. Ii order for the teachers to cope with the challenges at school they

need come up with strategies to help them to tackle the challenges in the classroom in a
positive manner. As mentioned above in terms of an ideal teacher that cares about the

learners emotional and socio-economic state which plays a very important role in their
st
learning process. In the 21 century, technology has met the learners and teachers
halfway and made learning and teaching easier. Being an ideal teacher could benefit

learners and the communities at large. For learners who are disadvantaged, teachers
who are well equipped and well-resourced they could make the learning and teaching

process easier. During this research, we have learnt a lot as a group about the impact
that we could make in the teaching sector. The skills that we have obtained in the past

three to four years have really been fruitful. We hope that you enjoyed this brochure just

as much as we did when compiling it.
