What is the relationship between having charisma and being a good teacher?
Like that between being strong and being a good football player. Having charisma is very helpful in teaching. It can get students to concentrate and to pay attention without really trying. But this can be worthless when the teacher is incompetent, unfocused, unclear, or fails in some other way to get the material across. In that case, students may still remember her or him years later, but they won't remember what was covered in the course. With charisma, it's easier to be a good teacher. But charisma alone does not ensure success.
