I have been teaching elementary school for over 25 years.
Interactive teaching style with a touch of entertainment to help the students enjoy learning. I use classroom games like nerf hoops or magnetic darts as incentives to keep the students engaged: Get the answer correct, shoot two hoops! (even if you get it wrong, learn from your mistake and take a shot anyway!) I like for the students to not just at their desk all day looking at a book or listening to a lecture. They learn a lot from each other and from hands-on experience.
I have never been awarded or honored for having been a teacher. The rewards, however, are spiritual, so that counts even more.
