By using the tools that were given to me, I was able to reach my students more and be more patient with them. Understanding that things come up and life will continue on happening, I have to understand my students needs and understand that certain activities will need to be more hands on instead of given on paper. Take my time with my students as when I were a student myself.

Understanding Student Characteristics | Origin: ED102

I learned from this course that everyone learns and intake things different from others. You must have patient with the students and understand that they also have reasonings as well. They might be frustrated or they might have forgotten. More in fact, they are probably scared. They key word is to have patience and teach your students a way that they could also understand.
