At least from my perspective, the one of a dude who is currently studying at the university, there are two kinds of memorable teachers: those that help their students open their minds and those that make their students laugh constantly, be it by their jokes, their attitudes and sometimes even their own persons. The ones that just teach facts and then get out of the classroom may not be bad teachers, but certainly not memorable ones.
Obviously, it's easier to open their minds if you teach them something like philosophy than something like magnetism. I know that this whole "opening their minds" thing can sound a bit esoteric, but it consists mostly of showing them that not everything is at it seems, that there's always two sides of an argument and so on. And for the jokes, I'd say improvise. If you feel like telling a joke, say it, but don't think "and in this moment I'm gonna tell the joke", unless you've seen it work before.
Just curious, what are you going to teach mate?
Economics and Business............maybe some plain English classes as well.

I was there, then lost it. I had, ahhh, can't remember which one(the personal relationship one where one member of the couple steals the energy of the other one, too lazy to go get the book right now.)kind of sap my energy and now I am starting over. I had a rotten day today, so my energy is at an altime low, I need to go sit out in the rain and just appreciate life, but in reality I must make supper.
You know, I needed to remind myself. The stealing of energy..........
The Sixth Insight... Clearing the Past
The more we stay connected, the more we are acutely aware of those times when we lose connection, usually when we are under stress. In these times, we can see our own particular way of stealing energy from others. Once our manipulations are brought to personal awareness, our connection becomes more constant and we can discover our own growth path in life, and our spiritual mission—the personal way we can contribute to the world.
