Motivation, one of the key issues for quality education. This is the motto of Daniel Blanco, professor and researcher at the Dutch public University Radboud (Nijmegen), who has just been awarded the title to the best university professor of Chemistry in the Netherlands, awarded by the Royal Society of Chemistry.
Daniel emphasizes that it is vital to create a bond with the students, comment on their development and choose non-hurtful words when they do it wrong. The teacher must present the subjects in an entertaining and fun way and to achieve this, the tacher needs to spend many hours preparing each class. Dedication and vocation, therefore, is another key issue, not to set aside.
