Abstract

China has been striving to establish a ‘quality-oriented’ system in Higher Education. To achieve the changing demands of globalization and the job market, it is the responsibility of institutions and teaching staff to provide a positive learning environment that stimulates and encourages student engagement and involvement in learning. This study explores how perceived characteristics of a good university teacher are related to the experienced teacher’s expertise, knowledge and competency. It shows that an effective university teacher acts as a pedagogical specialist and facilitator of learning, who is enthusiastic about the teaching profession, has profound knowledge of the discipline field, and uses various effective teaching methods to scaffold students’ learning. The core of the service for higher education institutions (HEIs) is to provide high-quality teaching. Through learning from expert teachers, this paper contributes some insights and support for the professional development of university professors and lecturers.
