I have learned from this course that keeping students engaged and committed to learning starts with fostering a positive and welcoming classroom environment. Small key practices such as learning student's names correctly, greeting them at the beginning of class, clear communication, and demonstrating genuine enthusiasm for the course can have a meaningful impact on student motivation and dedication towards their goals. I plan to demonstrate these strategies by developing strong connections with my students, promoting active involvement in class, and creating an environment where every student feels valued, supported, and capable of achieving success without feeling discouraged.
