Substitute teaching requires a unique set of skills that differs from traditional teaching. By exploring seven essential qualities, we aim to equip substitute teachers with strategies to adapt quickly, manage classrooms effectively, and engage students instantly. 

• Emphasizing adaptability for varying classroom environments 
• Discussing classroom management without inherent authority 
• The importance of reading classroom dynamics quickly 
• Presenting confidently amid uncertainty 
• Strategies to engage without prior relationships 
• The necessity of improvisation skills for unexpected scenarios 
• Building resilience and patience while facing challenges
