I feel that the most important part of the first class is to make a positive impression. Make sure you are on time and prepared for class to start on time. This sets the pace for the class and the students are clear as to what you expect.

I like to play games with my students. It increases their motivation and it keeps their attention. This has been effective for me in the past.

It is important to help your student set career goals and learn how to understand the goals. Make sure they are reachable and reward when goals are met.

It is important to have instructional stategies and be prepared to adjust depending on your students learning styles. This will help both you and your students.
