Dealing with the challenging students has been always rewarding for me because I feel very satisfied once my challenging student start focusing on his academic goals like my regular students. My way to deal with challenging is as below:

On the first day of each module, I distribute handouts for the course syllabus, and then explain them the requirement and expectations of the current course, and also tell them how they will be evaluated. On the same day I sign them assignments and encourage them to return them on time. This strategy has been very helpful for me so far, and I don't have to make multiple announcement in middle of module.

Before starting my new class, I always tell my class briefly about myself including my academic background and teaching experience and then I ask them to introduce one by one. This has always helped me to enjoy excellent rapport with my students.
