I have found that lesson plans are a good way to keep me on track. In the beginning I was trying to remember what I did in a previous class, in order to plan my next class. I have found that if I have my plans to flip back to, I do not have to play the guessing game.

I always share my story with my students. It allows them to see that I am human just as they are human. I am going through many of the same situations as my students, so I not only hear their stories, but I fully understand their stories.

I have better insight on the rules and regulations now. I can recognize when something is not being done properly.

You cannot take things too personal, because we have to remember that we are all the to do a job. Alot of individuals take their jobs very seriously, which everyone should, so when things don't go as planned they get upset. I know personally, when I am given a task I give it 300%, and nothing less. So, when things do not go as planned, I get a little bummed. I do understand though, that I have to seperate that from my coworkers, because they do not have any control over my success or failure.

I am a huge fan of student centered learning. It is said that students retain 90% of the information, when they direct their learning. I often use activities in my classroom, where the students go through the information, and outline what they believe to be important. I am there to solely guide them through the process.
