It is important that extra credit not exceed regular credits earned so that students must do all mandatory coursework to pass the class.

When students are not grasping the material presented take time to have them utilize the skills they already have with problem solving through a case study or other activity to help stimulate the skills they have and focus on what they may be missing.

Students are adept to retain 60-80% of lecture materials if at least two senses are activated throughout the teaching process.

It’s important to show excitement for the field you are teaching with success stories and anecdotes to get students to be enthusiastic about learning.

To create a lesson plan for the day you should determine lesson content, state title, create goals, develop a “why”, list objectives, decide on delivery method and evaluate lesson effectiveness.

As an introductory activity, have students write an index card with their name on it, phone number, email, current status in training, hobbies and current employment to initiate an introduction. Take the cards from the students and read them aloud to present each student to each other.

The syllabus includes objectives, goals, assignment deadlines while giving course organization and structure with relevant info about the class.

Remain professional at all times with students which translates to - being on time, preparing an adequate presentation, and speaking with language that is not casual.
