Tell something about yourself and get to know your students.
On the first day of class the students should be greeted for their comfort. They must have a proper syllabus explaining course goals and expectations. It is essential to inspire students with encouragement. Try to open a dialogue with a simple pre-test about their goals.
Personalization and getting to know students benefits both you and them. It will make you more appraochable and enable you to get to know your students better to better help them later.
Being relatable to your students will always be a plus in the classroom. I believe have open discussion relieves nervousness and anxiety in the classroom.
Its important for instructors to learn their students name because your students will feel more valued if you are able to address all of them by name.
Taking time to learn how to pronounce students names and brief overview of subject being taught.
I have learned that greeting students at the door and memorizing names quickly is important. I intend to use ice breakers to get to know my students.
It is important to build a relationship with your students to ensure they know you are approachable and available to.
A good icebreaker is simply introductions from the instructor and the student. Take a few minutes at the beginning of the class to over rules and regulations of the institution along with introductions
First impressions are lasting impressions. Once again, it goes hand in hand with professionalism when you are learn your student's names and show them how you care.
I learned that it is very important to learn the students names and a little about them. Also, it is important to share some information about yourself. This can put the students as ease and let them know you care.
Develop a list of what to do and achieve on first day of class, introduce self and encourage students to introduce themselves, make everyone feel a sense of inculsion in the class, give an overview of what the course is all about, the expectations foor students, provide sylabuus and course outline. Start to to learn the students' names and put a face to the names.
It is important to get to know your students, so they feel comfortable in your classroom.
It is not only important to greet students and get to know them, but to also give them expectations for the course
Get to know your students
I learned that it is important to set the tone and expectations for the course so the students are clear about what is expected and how they will be graded.
Set a tone and decrease the student's anxiety make the students feel important and see that you are interested in their ability to learn.
