Proper planning and preparation are key. Make sure to show up to class before the students arrive to ensure an inviting and well organized environment. Say hello to each student arriving to class with their first name, it makes the student feel welcomed, and creates a good start to the class. 

I have learned the importance of my professionalism and enthusiasm when instructing a class. It is important to model good behavior for career success and encouraging for students to do the same.
