It is very common to worry about if we are not ready for teaching.  I guess we will just have to adapt and grow as we go along.

Building a good rapport with the students may help mitigate a lot of the issues that may arise with students.

Understanding the various types of students within each class should be the instructors first priority to allow for a tailored experience for all students.

Yes, I see how I was handling some situations wrong, and now I see how to handle them in a better, more productive way

Laying out the expectations on day 1 with a well made syllabus will allow students to understand exactly how to achieve their goals.

I have learned that I'm the Controller Type, but I want to learn and create myself into a  Guild for myself and my students

I have learned to Stay Calm and avoid arguing or reacting emotionally, and listen to the students' concerns and try to understand the cause of the behavior

I have learned that one method is not always right or good for every student, and I need to work with the best way  to deal with every student, with a way to get the best method to help them to learn and understand what I want them to grasp

I learned how important it is to clearly explain the course objectives and expectations to students.

Classroom challenges can be prevented by being intentional as an instructor. Clear expectations, consistency, flexibility and building positive relationships with students are far more effective than reacting emotionally or trying to control every situation.  it also reinforces reflecting on my own practices and being willing to adjust when something isn't working.
