A sign of a good teacher/coach is the ability to inspire and motivate his/her students or players. This motivation lasts beyond their time spend on the court or in the classroom. I think its great to hear from former players and their invite you to their college graduation, weddings, or other important life events. I got the following key traits to success from one of my instructors in graduate school, Dr. Rich Cellini. One of the best teachers that I ever had because he constantly pushed you and challenged you to be better and to get it done!
