Summary/Abstract: One of the primary goals of a teacher is to motivate students to learn and to find pleasure and enjoyment in the learning process. A teacher who fails to find a way to touch the hearts and lives of learners is not effective. To achieve this goal, teachers must be more humanistic and creative in their teaching methods. Being a "connected" teacher means being able to convey information to students using motivational methods specific to their level, desire and needs. Thus, creativity has become one of the central issues in recent educational research. Teachers must not always be creative themselves but also find and stimulate the creativity of students; this is one of the most important directions to improve and modernize the teaching process. The development of creativity is a social demand, but also an individual need. It is more and more demanded by society to overcome the gap between creative activities and routine and to stimulate the progress of society.
