IT HAS WORKED FOR ME. WE WORK TOGETHER. AS AN INSTRUCTOR I DEMOSTRATE THEM A GENUINE INTEREST ENCOURAGING THEM ONE ANOTHER TO DO THE BEST JOB POSSIBLE ON ANYTHING THEY DO.

motivaiting student, tell them to stay focus on their gols to become an esthetician, help them as much as they needed so when they graduate from our school they will be proud.

I think motivating our students is very crucial to their learing, we can achieve this by rewarding them with excellent attendance and care.

When I read the heading of the topic I thought of trying to create something in a petrie dish. Then I realized that is exactly what we do. Take a staff of people and try to create a mixture that will do some good with out destroying itself. One wrong ingedient and the whole project could be destroyed. The creator has to deside to keep the ingredient in the mix and let time maybe create a good mixture or does it have to be neutrilized soon. Many important discoveries have come about by accident so the ansewer may be to wait and hope all is well.

Making a good first impression is very important. If you greet your students with a positive attitude and a welcome they will feel more at ease as they enter your class for the first time. Next you need to be prepared for the start of the day ahead of you. If the class is prepared and material is out to be distributed as necessary that will reinforce their mind set that you are ready to start the learning experience and they will know that is how they should prepare themselves for the days ahead.

I believe we are in the business of providing a path for future employment in a field I hope they are excited about. We can provide all types of knowledge and experience and know how but they are the ones who come here to change their present life. It sad to say but most have no desire to change their present lives and it shows at graduation.

If the students think your only here for the pay check they may think your cutting corners . If you show you really are interested in them as a person and a student you will get a lot more from them. Show you care, interact with them and go above and beyond what is expected; find the ansewer to their questions, help them with a problem that may not be your course, etc. and they will become more then students. If you're there just for the pay check it will show and they will look elsewhere for guidence and knowledge. Besides the day will go a lot faster if your not always looking at the clock to see if it's time to leave.

Model I talk to the students and let them know that I had to start somewhere also. I tell a story about what a friend told me when I was about thirty-three year old when I got fluster with a young man. My friend came in to the shop were u worked and saw that I was beside my self so he asked me what was wrong I replayed that this young man was getting to me and if he didn’t listen to me I would have to get rid of hi. My friend just said that just remember you were there not to long ago so think about it. My friend passed away a few years ago but I never forgot what he said.

In a class room of 40 to 60 students it seems every now and again we will get a student who just is not prepared emotionally or mentally to be there. Do we coddle them as was mentioned in section 1 and make the rest suffer or just accept the fact and leave them behind? This being after all avenues are exhausted such as counsuling and tutors.

It's funny how some times the extra student such as these lead to problems that are or is occuring now. Negative persons are every where in just about every job site, school, evry where where the goals are not the same or every one is not intune to the same end. The funny thing is you would think as short as life is they would find their nitch what makes them happy. How can a negative person possible want to stay where he is not happy. I have talked with a couple they insisted this is what they want but their actions their disposition does not support their answer or attitude.

I taught truck brakes and on the first day I would hand out one of the brake shoes. Tell me what's different between these and the ones on your car? when we were through with the discussion the relieve in the eyes told their own stories. I gained the students confidence then and there. After that what ever came up the students and I deal with without any "hoopla". When I explain the air system it's with dramalation and noises once the student gets past the fear it's over except for the shout.I try to make my lectures fun but informative and I usually get good results.

I believe I have more than 1 customer. Granted my first and most imediate customer is my student. I need to nurish and develope my student so that they are employable and to the finish since my students will have to deal with the public my end customer is the public. I need to educate my students to progress first with knewledge then how to deal with customers

on the first day of class I meet and greet I ask students what they expect out of the class I ask them to tell me something about themselves I take notes and then I make reference to what they talked aboutor their expectations usually this makes them tell me something else I keep a note pad close and when the student leaves or when I can I jot down our conversation and that keeps me with fresh information that I can interject if I find a student losing interest. I make sure that the student knows that I am trust worthy and not going to let out anything he or she shares privatly with in reason of course

When you work as a team not only will you improve the retention but it will also make it a better place to work

Try to keep the motivated and incourage them along the way

If we take the time to listen to are students we can get to the root cause of there problems

If a student is doing well in his/her studies and focus on keep going to class isn't he/she "probably" persist in school? or is not enough for a sutdent to persist in school. Dr. Banks please enlighten me.

if we can impact then lets find out why

we just have to meet it head on , with new ideas and better ways to meet this challenge

if you don't like your job quit
