To support successful outcomes the instructor should engage with students at the individual level.
Knowing the students and facilitation of group bond activities help to create a long-lasting relationships throughout semester.
I always give a brief bio about myself so students understnd that like them I made through whatever class or program thay are going through
The first class meeting has the ability to set the tone for the rest of the course.
It is important to share your background and interests with your students as well as getting to know their interests.
A proper intruction leads to a positive relationship with students. Ensuring to pronounce names correctly. A great to get to know each other excercise is to have everyone intruduce themselves and tell a little something about themselves.
Getting to know the students and learn their names quickly. Having this connection will allow them to be more receptive to learning throughout the course.

I will try hard to remember all the names.
Introductions by name with a personal fact help students to feel comfortable and will help me to remember names which is important to make people feel valued.

I learned it is important to test students prior to them going to class so they have an idea of what they are going to learn.
It is difficult for me to remember names. I need to come up with a system to do that. Also just putting students at ease during the first class.
Have everyone state their name, what they think they know about the course. What they would like to learn from the course as well as their future career in said course. State my experience and share what I've seen in the field to better clarify the path the students are headed down.
Always communicate with your students and it's OK if they know a bit about you. Even better if you know a little bit about them. It is the relationship that helps build trust.
I like to do a icebreaker and introduction in the begining of each course....
