Empathy and compassion go a long way and with students its important to lead with these qualities. Set clear expectations, create a relationship with each student and relate to them in a way that acknowledges we are all human. 

Impressions are everything; whether they are a 5 second interaction or 5 minutes, how you hold yourself and portray yourself outwards can leave either the wrong or right impression on someone. 

I have learned to be clear about assignment deadlines and that activities that involve teamwork during course teachings will help keep students engaged.
