Teaching, by definition, is a form of communication, so it follows that a teacher must have excellent communication skills. These include both verbal and written communication, professional yet friendly body language, and the ability to really listen.
You also must be able to adapt your communication style to the needs of different students, depending on their age, culture, ability, and learning style. You will also have to communicate in clear, accurate, and professional terms with parents, colleagues, and administrators, both in person and in writing.
Critical Thinking
Teachers need to be able to solve a variety of problems, often under a tight deadline. They need to answer difficult questions from students on the spot, solve conflicts between students, revise lesson plans, and deal with issues among colleagues. A good teacher knows what resources to use to solve these kinds of questions quickly and effectively.
Teachers have to juggle a number of tasks, from teaching to attending meetings, to lesson planning, to grading. Getting all of it done in a timely manner requires excellent physical organization and time management.
Passion
A teacher needs to be enthusiastic about whatever subject he or she is teaching. Students see that passion, and that makes them enthusiastic participants.
