Modeling for the students is something I always talk about and do inside and out of the lab and classroom setting. Its important to practice what you Preach in a sense.
Set a professional example for your students, Don't try to "be smarter" than them but instead show them that you love the subject your teaching and you are excited to show/teach it to them.
Making each day something that I am excited about that I pass on to my students. I see each day as an opportunity for us to learn together. I don't need to have the pressure of being the smartest in the room, that will not happen anyway, but at least I can model the excitement of learning.

I enjoyed the Harvard videos. My biggest take away is that perception is reality so if the facilitator/instructor is giving signals that they are disinterested or underprepared then the students will pick up on that and mirror it. Buy-in from the students is necessary so we can assist with that by being on time, invested, put together, and having a plan already in place prior to the class start time.
It's imperative how we address and appear to our students. The most important point is never to forget that we were once students and the impression we had about our teachers. Be that instructor that made a good impression and impact on the student's life.
The 3 'M's of model, mange, and motivate through professionalism.
As an instructor, I have to learn the different roles I need to play in the classroom. Being professional at all times is crucial. Motivate students by showing them I love the subject matter and I love teaching them.
Do not act like you are the smartest person in the room and show your students why you love the subject! Be credible, candid, compassionate, committed, and clear!
Lead by example, always be professional.
It is important as a successful structure to always keep learning yourself!
While maintaining professionalism, of course, it is still important to "be you!" Let your personality shine through in your teaching in a way that engages students, warms the classroom, and makes the content less dry!
