Professionalism needs to include the language I use and the way I present myself both in look and demeanor.

I learned that the syllabus is like the backbone of the course that you are teaching, it gives the students everything that you expect from them.

I have learned that being professional is more that just being and playing the role of instructor. It is about showing the students how to be professional by wearing the proper uniform, your attitude, your demeaner and arriving on time to class. You are not just the instructor, you are giving the students a role model for your particular field.

I found students regular assessments help students to see what areas they need to improve in.

If I explain the subject matter and start brainstorming to see what their thinking is will this help them understand better, or confuse them more especially if they didm’t understand the explanation.

If I have a group that understands the content faster than my group, how do I incorporate the others in the conversation so that I don’t lose them until I get them on the same page.

I can use either learning styles. I work best with visual, and kinesthetic styles. But I also need auditory stimulation to get a clear picture.
