How can you say that you're an effective teacher?

I've been only teaching for almost 6 months now. And now, I know the feeling of teachers seeing the fruit of the seed that they have planted. I am proud to say that when my student tell me that their English is improving now. It means that my methods of teaching is getting to them. And that they learn from me. How about you? What can you say?

When you take time to plan your lesson, when you gather enough educational materials, when you choose the most involving teaching methodology, when after you are done with lesson and the period is over, and onother teacher is waiting to take over from you, your students seem to want you to stay on- that to me is the measure of effectiveness as a teacher.
