Who is an 'expert professor' ?

Who is an 'expert professor' ? Is it someone who has degrees and many years of work experience and loads of research paper or who is followed, respected for producing successful students?

The world may have over a million of Professors but whom do you call the 'expert professor' ? Is it someone who has several degrees, many years of teaching experience and had written loads of research papers or those who makes differences to the student's attitude, career and lives with their magical touch? Are those 'expert professors' who fail to generate interest among the students and in their classes students listen to iPod or get engaged in cyber chat with friends or those where students from other classes or even other institutions sit to hear and learn ? Who is 'expert professor' who deliver curriculum in the name of 'knowledge' and 'teaching' like the Pizza Hut delivery boy or those who make students excited about their classes and ignite spark to give attention towards academics and help them to do well in their lives ? Most professors 'taught' us we do forget them and also what they 'taught' ... can they be called 'expert professor' ? I call them 'expert professors' whom I still remember after 30-35 years and still recall what they taught. What about you?
