Model professionalism and be present for students. 

Professionalism matters

Lead by example for your students and always remain professional. 

Always pay attention to ensure that Learning takes place

As a leader, keep it professional and have an individualized Plan

come to class and show your professionalism, come dressed right speak clearly and confidently. 

Model, manage, motivate..  Lead by example and connect with your students early.  Use a teaching style accommodating to them and pay attention to body gestures, language, behaviors.  Always be professional, make sure there are no technicalities during your lessons by preparing early, and deliver with your personality/ demeanor.

To make sure new skills are applied in the classroom and how to incorporate them into my daily routine.

Lead by example in attitude and professionalism. 

Remind yourself what you loved about previous teachers. We've all had instructors who made a difference or made class interesting and fun. What can I do as a teacher, using my own strengths and experience, to help motivate the students in a similar way?

Always come to class prepared and ready.

I learned that you have to be both professional and personal to be effective in the classroom. 

In addition to functioning as a leader, the course has helped me to come up with strategies to develop techniques to explain complex concepts clearly and concisely, breaking down information into manageable parts.

Have patience, compassion, and professionalism. 

I must continually monitor myself be prepared to make changes when necessary to improve.

Professionalism continues through the entire course.

Comment on Bryan Matthews's post: Perfect

Continually monitor myself and don't be afraid to admit I must change something!

The 5 C's (Credible, Candid, Compassionate, Committed, Clear) and "Model, Manage, Motivate," are very clear and concise ways to remember my duties as an instructor.

I have learned that it is most important to model myself in a way the exhibits my love of the field i am teaching, This is an aspect i dint think about before, this will be my first exposure to instructional teaching.

Professionalism sets the tone.
