A good teacher typically possesses the following characteristics:

(i) Provides self-learning conditions to students in the classroom:

- Encourages autonomy and independence

- Fosters a growth mindset and self-directed learning

(ii) Systematically plans the lesson/unit before teaching:

- Designs engaging and relevant instructional materials

- Anticipates and addresses potential learning challenges

(iii) Promotes democratic values in the class:

- Encourages active participation, discussion, and debate

- Fosters a sense of community, respect, and empathy

- Empowers students to take responsibility for their learning

Option (iv) is incorrect because:

- Punishment can create a negative learning environment and undermine student motivation
