Hi dear Colleagues
Thank you all for very interesting answers although we all have different cultures , mostly answer in the same.
men and women generally have different ways of teaching or describing something ! But in fact in the university level it doesn't matter at all, as long as the professors know their subject, teach it well, caring and ........
It depends on the field. In engineering, there are fewer female professors and they truly standout in my department. In Nursing there are a few male professors. Thus, it is difficult to generalize.
Dear Rasha,
The answer may be the result of an objective scientific investigation.
The evaluation of the teaching competency may be a strong criterion to consider for a clear answer to the main question of the thread, if the evaluation procedure is straightforward.

No. What is the justification? There are really excellent female teachers as we have for male teachers. The discovery of my talents was by virtue of a patient, listening and motivating female teacher!
Anyone can be a good teacher. In a small department over the years we had one excellent female, one excellent male, then 5 other males and one female of average performance and another male of well below zero performance.
It may a typical group of teachers. Males did not win neither did the females.
Intelligence and talent are independent of sex. The quality of the teacher can be measured by the evaluation that he applied to the effective transformation of the learner by showing the specific science of his domain and preparing him for life with a critical, responsible and ethical sense.
No, they are not. @ Peter, it would a great opportunity for training to remain focussed on the subject matter.
No general definite answer, a number of qualities is required to be a good teacher whoever succeeds in having a maximum of them is the better.
I've had good and bad teachers that were male and female, and my favorite physics and calculus teachers in high school were both female. In fact, I took physics one year early, in high school, because our wonderful physics teacher was retiring at the end of the year. So no, the gender determines nothing.
BUT
When I was in elementary school and had mostly female teachers, they all preferred teaching biology and botany. I had to wait for a male teacher, in 5th grade, to start on physics. So, not sure what that says.
I think there is no scientific basis of one gender being better than the other in teaching. But female teachers tend to be more patient
This depends on the teaching method and on the scientific output of both male and female teachers
Dear
skills and personality are important than gender in teaching
Greeting
I don't think so.I know many female teachers who are better than any male teachers...
Are male teachers better than female teachers at teaching?
For initial levels of study this statement can be accepted....for small children females are better teacher.....for higher levels both are equal...
Regards
I doubt it, being better in a profession isn't a matter of sex.
Either we're good or bad, be it men or women.
Regards!
Dear Rasha Jasim Al-Karawi,
I believe that your question is very interesting. I suggest that a study must be done just to know the results about it.

It depending on the way of treating the students . But some times I have seen that some teachers they don't like to teach same gender. .I donot know exactly why? But as a teachers we have to control everything.
I like the question. I observe a lot of opinions. I think that men are not better, but women are no better. Depends on the nature of the person
The answer can not be generalized and ideally should not generalized. Every individual teacher has his or her own qualities and no two teacher male or female can not be the same.
The personality as teacher is always different. The ability to deliver lecture, the interest the teachers male or female take in student's problems are also different.
Can we compare teachers? Every teacher has some draw back and some unique qualities. Their view on discipline may also be not the same.
Answer can not be rendered as parameters to measure the skills of male or female teachers are not established.
I have observed that some female teachers are better compared with male teachers and vice-a-versa
Good teachers have mastery of their subjects. They also stand out as motivators of their students. Both issues are critical to knowledge deli ery. The issue of sex does not arise at all.

I think it depends on teacher and field of teaching .
best regard
In student centered learning, the first objective of the teacher is to transfer knowledge to students, then involve and motivate them to be the part of the process of learning. Therefore, there is no difference between male or female teacher, since they both have these capabilities.
Dear Hikmet, being a good teacher, does not depend on the gender of the teacher. You have both, male and female, excellent teachers.

Teaching is a challenging profession that needs to be particularly well-equipped. Some of these features can be gained with training and experience. But thanks to some inherent traits in teaching, they can be more successful both in winning the teaching formation and in teaching. As a result, without discrimination of sex, it is the person who is able to optimally use all the potential, experience and accumulation that a good and successful teacher, born, inherited or acquired afterward.

I believe there is marginal difference between male and female teachers.
The difference depends on practical and theoretical experience, whether it is a teacher or a teacher.
this is where both professional and personal characteristics of a teacher is taken into serious consideration.
According to the experience and practice of the teacher practical and theoretical and not the sex relationship to the best ..
I do not think so. Gender equality is there. I think everyone has same capable...

I had both and I had both male and female students , nobody said anything !!
Gender doesn't matter as far as knowledge is concerned In teaching field. It does matter when it's school level as female teachers can be more acceptable as mother figure.
I do not think gender as being male or female, teacher or teacher; make the difference in who is better. Both can be excellent teachers or lousy teachers, which depends more on their professional preparation than on sex.
In my opinion, gender has no relation. Only love and competence make the difference.
Best regards.
Good question, I've been taught by both male and female teachers, both are good , It's just that female teachers tends to be more patient.
In essence it is not an individuals gender that makes for a good teacher. Rather, it is in the manner by which they have acquired their knowledge and the manner in which they have learned to share said knowledge. The same question could be asked of those with formal training and those with no formal training. Which one is the better teacher? I would have fall back to my initial response to the question posed.
Who said that . I think there is no difference between male and female education just in the teaching method
I think this didn't depend on gender ,but on the person himself regardless his been male or female especially in universities .
Dear: Dr. Rasha
Generally, there is no difference between male and female, but I think in first levels Female better than Male.
It depends on the level you're talking about, on the purposes of education, and on teachers' roles.
In primary/elementary schools there is a dearth of male teachers, so young boys are being affected by the absence of male role models. If role-modelling is an aspect of teaching, then presumably males are better at being male role models.
In some university disciplines in which women have traditionally been underrepresented, female instructors who can serve as female role models might similarly be better than male teachers.
I don’t see any differences. However, biological barriers like motherhood may affect women carrier including teaching.
Teaching depends on affection and dedication to the teaching job not in gender.
I think both male and female teachers are quite capable of being excellent depending on the individual and the situation.
According to my opinion, the male teachers and female teachers are equal at teaching. There is no differences among them.
