The Interpersonal competency is necessary in teachers because they must be confident and able to handle critical situations, and effectively manage the classroom. This competency also aims to have a teacher give and encourage more student autonomy. To do this, one must first be confident in one's ability to guide the lessons and let the students lead while still being able to maintain behavior.

The Pedagogical competency is important for the main reason that a child is less likely to learn if they feel uncomfortable or their needs are not met. Additionally, one must recognize students' zone of proximal development and adjust their teaching to suit the individual learner's needs.

The ability of a teacher to collaborate with his or her colleagues is essential in creating a safe and educational environment collectively, for the benefit of the students. The more ideas available, the more productive we can be as teachers to provide an education and environment in which the students can thrive.

Collaboration with the working environment is important in making all parties in the student's life feel that all needs are being met and to promote a holistically supportive learning environment.

Reflection & development is crucial as a teacher because, for me, it defines a great teacher. A good teacher learns from his or her own lessons, but a great teacher takes every opportunity to improve even after a good lesson.
