I have learned to share my first hand experiences and to remain empathetic and enthusiastic!

This module helped in serving as a reminder that no mater what pedagogy we prescribe to ourselves or to other teachers, what must remain is the human element. Getting frustrated will, of course, happen but we can not allow our frustrations to exert themselves against the students and must understand where it is that they are coming from. Losing our ability to recognize student's as individuals and instead ascribing them to the role of student, will not only prevent their own internal motivations, but will impede your ability to succeed.

El entusiasmo y la motivación del instructor actúa como un modelo a seguir por el estudiante, no puedo convencer a mis estudiantes que el aprendizaje es interesante , entretenido y agradable si yo como instructor estoy desmotivado y aburrido de mi praxis docente. Siempre he creído que el fin más importante de nuestras clases es promover y garantizar el aprendizaje, pero si insistimos en concentrarnos en los resultados entonces olvido el proceso de aprender que es realmente lo importante. Por lo tanto no nos podemos concentrar solo en retroalimentar al estudiante solo en aquellas cosas que no logro o que no ha alcanzado, sino hacerle saber como puede lograr el aprendizaje.

Having the ability to motivate students with your instruction, instructing in a way that is diverse and inclusive to all learners. Providing reinforcement for the students to gain motivation as well.
