I have learned that getting to know your new students or new employees helps to set the stage for establishing trusting relationships from the beginning. Staying connected with each one makes them feeling heard and supported.
Make it a priority to learn my students preferred learning and communication style to support their success. Also ensure to familiarize myself with the online system for teaching and grading with ease.
Making personal connections with students at the beginning of class via a smile, or a getting to know you ice breaker, helps foster connections and trust. This helps to promote opportunity for learning and engaging.
Its important to be prepared, and focused for myself and for the students. Giving myself extra time to connect and breathe before we get into our start of class in important.
Be prepared, ready, and excited to receive and teach the students. Being professional in all areas of communication with the students and with my colleagues.
