Five More Teaching Tips

The following five teaching tips build upon the ten teaching tips posts of May 21 and May 28, 2008.

1. Build relationships with the students. Talk to them about their hobbies, interests, activities, etc.

2. Relate their hobbies/interests/activities to class content. As a result, they can connect more easily with the subject matter.

3. Ask questions regarding a student’s response. Attempt to determine what the student had in mind when responding to classroom material.

4. Be fair. Being fair in this context means everyone receives what they need.

5. Be organized. Not only does it make the class progress smoothly, it usually helps the students learn the material.
