for the students success the instructor is very influencial,therefore the instructor needs to be an expert at his/her field, needs to have empathy,enthusiasm and clarity.

it is very important to create rapport with students to make them feel welcome and comfortable.

important to be fair and caring with all students, very important for their learning and retention of the course.

very important for learners of any age group to have the right support being internal or external both help a great deal in their learning process.

it is great to be prepared to our best standards to give the learners the best experiece when learning on-line.

both types of discussions are great learning experiences.

THE CHATS ARE IMPORTANT SO THEY CAN LISTEN TO THE INSTRUCTOR AND OTHER STUDENTS OPINIONS

as myself as an instructor students can too get great results by taking on-line courses it helps to retain alot of information.

Dear Melissa, The way a motivate students is to let them talk about the subject and listen to their questions and opinions,they enjoy the class better when they feel like they are the ones doing the work you are just giving them the push they need to improve their skills.For the shy students I like to work with them one-on one, makes them feel more comfortable.

Hi everyone, The importance of being a good instructor is to present yourself as a person first,never try to proof you are smarter than them is not the way to go this days remember there are students that like to challenge instructors all the time therefore it is better to convence the students that you care for them and the subject you are teaching.
