Easing tension on 1st day

What best practices as Instructors can we give to students to ease their anxiety on first day of class/session?

Keith Crawford, Being transparent and genuine with students builds TRUST and unfortunately there are no shortcuts in that journey. I'm not talking about shmoozing , at the end of the day people know if we really care about them or not. Being ''real'' with people is risky but it relaxes them. they see ''humility''  and they see us as trustworthy.

 

Keith your comment was wisely stated honesty continues to be then best weapon against learners tension. The best to each of us.
