Bringing in fun activities for students may make them feel more comfortable such as bring a treat day.

It is important to provide all of the tools that the student will need to be successful in the beginning. They will feel more a part of the classroom if they know what it is expected of them early on.

Bills seem to cause many people stress even is that person is wealthy because it forces you to pay for something that is possibly needed and not something you want to pay for. I find that bills can increase more stress if you do not have a financial solution to that stress. I am thinking about speaking to a financial advisor.

Providing a concern or excitement goes a long way with students. They are glad that you care and trully understand their concerns in the class or their personal lives. Students want to feel a part of the class and not disengaged by the instructor.
