Experience, Skills, and Personality Traits
To teach photography, you need education and experience in the technical elements of shooting and developing film. You also need to be passionate about photography and teaching to be an instructor. Students learn at different rates; some will pick up techniques and show talent from the beginning, while others may struggle just trying to load a roll of film into their camera. For this reason, you should also be extremely patient and supportive.
