The data were collected through open ended questionnaire by providing 10 statements regarding the characteristics of good English teacher and 10 statements for effective English teachers.

Then regarding the opinions of male and female students about the most important character to declare an effective English teacher, they choose different characters, but both refer to the teacher's pedagogical ability, especially in understanding students' abilities and characteristics, because if they already have good abilities in understanding character and student abilities, the impact will also be very good on student learning outcomes.]]>
