A varied teaching style keeps students engaged and dedicated to the learning process. Everyone learns differently, and you must try to reach as many students as possible.
Using different styles of teaching based on audience. Breaking demonstrations up into smaller segments.
I will definitely do demonstrations beforehand so I am sure of what I am doing to teach the class. I love PowerPoints and how they are good resource for teaching. I would also vary my teaching style to reach as many students as possible.
Varying my teaching styles to reach many students at their level. Practice my demonstrations beforehand.
It is important for all instructors to use several different learning styles when creating a class.

The best way of teaching is by making the course and interactive course in which the students work together and I get to work with them as well.
This gave me a better idea of how to break up a lecture especially when the attention span is only 18 minutes.
When planing, consider different learning style.
keeping lectures s15 or less with different approaches for all
