Varying your teaching style and methods will help to engage students of all learning styles, help keep them interested, and maintain variety in your curriculum

Getting to know your students as individuals as well as allowing them to get to know you helps establish a relationship of trust and helps students to feel more comfortable with the instructor overall. Taking the time to greet each student as class begins and giving the them opportunities to seek support before or after class can improve their engagement and allow them to feel more comfortable coming forward for additional help.

Preparing for instruction goes beyond the writing and researching, it is also about the mental preparation and methods the instructor uses to get comfortable with the material, teaching environment and students. Taking the time to learn to correctly pronounce the names of students and actively engaging with them one on one can provide valuable feedback that can help guide and shift teaching strategies to better fit the needs of the learners.

Instruction should always be student centered, and student focused. Modeling the professionalism you would like to see in yourself and your colleagues is one of the best ways to exemplify to students the expectations and professionalism that will allow them to reach their professional goals. Teaching is also a learning process that requires humility and self reflection in order to refine your ability to successfully teach and engage students.
