Model, manage and motivate

For me model and managing a class seems to be a given and an intregral part of teaching. Motivation is key in keeping students engaged and sharing former student employement successess can be a simple way to motivate students.

Several things stick out.

Model, Manage and motivate.

The first two for me seem to be a given and are an intregral part of the teaching process. Motivating I think can happen accidentally by sharing former student successes and presenting career opportunities, this being a simple conversation that happens as a side bar.

The other thing that may be taken for granted are the soft skills, they need to be consatntly stressed.

Being on time is critical for success in the real world and appearance also plays an important role.
