Being aware of your own learning style is extremely important.  As instructors, we often tend to teach to the type of learnign we enjoy.  Performing an assessment in the beginning of a class will help instructors be familiar with the type students they are teaching to.  It is necessary to address all styles of learning, as well as, evaluation methods. Each student deserves to be evaluated fairly.  

It is essential to stay current, in both content and delivery.  By injecting personality and experiences, teaching can be fun and exciting (which allows our students to enjoy learning!!)  It can be tempting, when teaching the same courses over again, to use "old" materials, however, it can also sound old.  Instructors can learn from one another or even utilize social media, to regain momentum for reteaching the old materials.
