    This is very well written @Lu_Corde (did you have a coffee beforehand? 😜)

    I totally agree that the social skills aspect of being a teacher is vastly underrated and it can really make or break whether a teacher is good or not (Personally, I feel it is similar to doctors – if a doctor has a terrible bedside manner, I don’t want to go to him or her. Regardless of how good they are at the medical side of things!)

    I have very little corrections for you:

    > he explained us concepts about math and physics > he explained concepts about math and physics (to us)

    See: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/grammar/british-grammar/explain

    > A good teacher should be patient, passionate and have good social skills, other than HAVING a good knowledge of his/her subject, of course!
