1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.980

2
00:00:06.980 --> 00:00:11.830
A healthy disregard for
authority, and curiosity.

3
00:00:11.830 --> 00:00:12.650
Enthusiasm.

4
00:00:12.650 --> 00:00:14.588
Enthusiasm and drive is the key.

5
00:00:14.588 --> 00:00:16.129
I think, ultimately,
is a willingness

6
00:00:16.129 --> 00:00:20.410
to take risks with their
ideas and curiosity.

7
00:00:20.410 --> 00:00:24.420
Students who are not afraid
to deal with and embrace

8
00:00:24.420 --> 00:00:27.920
the difficulty that often
accompanies literary study.

9
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:30.630
In a good student,
I value the ability

10
00:00:30.630 --> 00:00:34.010
to pause and to take
time in responses,

11
00:00:34.010 --> 00:00:36.060
and to take time and
care in their work.

12
00:00:36.060 --> 00:00:39.010
I really value enthusiasm.

13
00:00:39.010 --> 00:00:42.600
I think you can teach
a student anything who

14
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:44.470
is an enthusiastic
learner of the subject

15
00:00:44.470 --> 00:00:47.250
that they are at higher
education to learn.

16
00:00:47.250 --> 00:00:48.750
We're interested
in what we're doing

17
00:00:48.750 --> 00:00:51.059
and we like to be around
people who are also

18
00:00:51.059 --> 00:00:52.600
very interested in
what they're doing

19
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:53.808
because it makes it exciting.

20
00:00:53.808 --> 00:00:58.520
The attributes that I value
most is their critical ability

21
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:01.050
and their ability
to take information

22
00:01:01.050 --> 00:01:03.050
from a number of
sources and being

23
00:01:03.050 --> 00:01:06.855
able to synthesise their
own understanding from that.

24
00:01:06.855 --> 00:01:10.170
The enthusiasm, the
desire to learn,

25
00:01:10.170 --> 00:01:12.750
the feeling that they are here
because they want to be here.

26
00:01:12.750 --> 00:01:15.124
And they're really excited to
hear what you've got to say

27
00:01:15.124 --> 00:01:17.160
and they're really
interested in it.

28
00:01:17.160 --> 00:01:19.930
And actually, that doesn't
take much academic ability.

29
00:01:19.930 --> 00:01:22.180
That just takes a
really lively mind.

30
00:01:22.180 --> 00:01:24.420
The ability to learn fast.

31
00:01:24.420 --> 00:01:27.290
The ability to
present their work

32
00:01:27.290 --> 00:01:30.260
in an effective and clear way.

33
00:01:30.260 --> 00:01:35.020
The ability to abide by
deadlines, tight deadlines.

34
00:01:35.020 --> 00:01:37.860
And the ability to interact
with their peers and with me.

35
00:01:37.860 --> 00:01:42.840
Good students are fun,
interesting, interested.

36
00:01:42.840 --> 00:01:43.900
They have enthusiasm.

37
00:01:43.900 --> 00:01:45.140
They have drive.

38
00:01:45.140 --> 00:01:48.750
They are just a joy to teach.

39
00:01:48.750 --> 00:01:54.080
If you've got that, then
all else will follow.

40
00:01:54.080 --> 00:02:00.747
