What you mean by software?
Software is the basic learning tool, which allows programming in computer, and advances the computer work method. Software is divided into two parts – one is the Application software and the other is the System software.

What is the job of a software teacher?
The primary goal of a software teacher is to deliver knowledge on educational content. The teacher should keep in mind that application is the keyword to software and unless a student learns how to apply it, there is no proper solution. Software teaching endeavor is all about learning by doing.
However, the software teacher has to determine what software tools he/she is discussing. Whether the tool is a drawing program, a language interpreter, compiler, a robot, fabrication tool, control program, or a program for creating documents, web pages, or a voice over Internet communication program. All these will determine what should be the process of teaching.
Flash-based teaching modules enable the students to learn the basics of the software according to their own pace. A software teacher should be well aware of the different software in the trend and that will prove to be the best for the students. However, the teachers should keep in mind the age and grade level of the students while determining the kind of software for the students.
Software are available according to the subjects. Whether it is science, arts, music, or literature, the software provides a great way to enhance the knowledge of the students. A teacher should realize the fact that the software is an intelligent way to impart knowledge to the students. To hone the language skills, there is software that will promote the learning ability of the students. When it comes to learning foreign language, then a software teacher should be aware of any well-designed application software.
