Is Mr Keating a good teacher?

  Mr Keating's way of teaching is rather unusual, unique. He's engaging students in lessons so they have an opportunity not only to learn but also enjoy the classes or at least feel like interested in discussed topics. What's more, he's shortening the distance between himself and boys, he's building a relationship as they were all good friends but with a dose of respect. He's a ''Captain'' after all.   In my opinion, he deserves a trophy. He's helping boys spread their wings and see the world from an utterly new perspective. Without him, Neil would never think of becoming an actor or even undermine his father's words.  I believe the teacher is not a revolutionist, but a guide. 
  On the other hand, the lecturer sees the world as an artist, as a poet, he idealises the reality in which everyone is doing what they love, which we know that is impossible to exist. That might be dangerous for students in the future though.
