    This essay addresses the following questions: What will I need to know to be an effective language arts teacher? How will the knowledge help me to become an effective language arts teacher? It is an original essay of about 1200 words with links for further study. The issues addressed are what is in the purview of the language arts teacher and how does s/he apply that in the field. Listening, speaking, reading and writing in all its various forms are part of the language arts class's daily fare. Knowledge of assessment and evaluation instruments, formal and informal, is critical, as is knowledge of the Internet and other information technology such as personal computers. Good language arts teachers will interweave what s/he knows from other humanities and sciences and use those as multi-disciplinary classes to keep interest and make learning fun. Games harvested from the Internet and textbooks can also promote learning of basic skills, avoiding "skill, kill, drill" in favor of motivated learning. Language arts teachers ultimately want their students to become self-motivated lovers of language in all its forms who can continue their education in the classroom, in their careers, and in life. This essay attempts to explore the above issues. It does not pretend to answer the questions with an essay. Its intention is to cover the questions in general so as to get the reader thinking. Beyond that, it gives advice to the student on how to use his/her notes, homework, readings and anything else related to the course to brainstorm towards putting together a good essay.

    The question is what will I need to know to be an effective language arts teacher. How will this knowledge help me to become an effective language arts teacher? I can not write this for you. I am going to make some suggestions before writing my suggestions. What does your teacher/course say a language arts teacher does?
