A teacher can only be great if he/she talks and learns from peers. If teachers only use their own resources and teaching tidbits, then their ceiling for being a great teacher is limited. However, if they use other teachers and experienced faculty members then they will be able to grow and learn from their experiences.
The competent teacher builds and maintains collaborative relationships to foster cognitive, linguistic, physical, and social and emotional development. This teacher works as a team. If teachers always assume their method of teaching is the best way, then they will restrict their students from reaching their full potential.
