Time Management with Challenged Students

I have been teaching for 13 years. I am always seeking suggestions with new ways to encourage time management while keeping students motivated. I take attendance at the beginning and end of class. I provide timed "peer group" assignments so students can stay on track. Even though their is a calendar provided where the class choose the deadline dates (within reason,) the biggest challenge are those students who simply lack the motivation..the right attitude to forsee their long-term success.

Still learning

For nearly 7 years, I had taught Professional Studies to juniors and seniors at a NYC university. The work experience was incredible and helped define where I would teach next. Teaching adult learners is absolutely challenging, motivating and simply rewarding. I am so proud to be a part of a career college and focusing on helping the next generation of students. We all need to keep our course material diversified from bringing in a guest speaker (when relevant) to providing students with current written materials related to a topic which lets your students know you are passionate about what you do.

Course feedback

I agree. I had taken the course earlier in the year and now I can see the bigger picture. I have been able to apply some of the beneficial information that I had retained during this course. It will be useful to you.
