Due to this pandemic situation, the school I work at has gone to complete online learning

 

I have learned many things from this experience centered on this subject. I have made a point to make sure I know the content and how it should be delivered to the students for ease of undrstanding, but also making it easy for them to navigate the content

As a former student, I remember my fellow students complaints about the course and its material, and adapted those to make the course more informative and more engaging to the ones I instruct now

On the first day I always try to get a feel for the students and let them get a feel for me and what I will be instructing them on. I introduce myself and give a brief history of my skills, then go around the room and have the students tell me a brief summary of themselves as well

On the first day of class, I always like to give the students an idea of where we wil be going and what they will be doing on a daily basis, it seems to give them a better idea of how they should prepare for each day.

One thing I have utilized when I was giving training seminars for Choice Hotels was that I liked to get feedback from the students(attendees) themselves. It helped me to understand the different learning curves that we as humans all have. Not everyone learns or understands the material at the same pace, so i strive to find methods that work for everyone or repeat the material in many ways so that everyone can get on board with it
