A general strategy for student retention is by letting your presence be known to the students. Keep reassuring them that you are there to guide & support them.
keeping students engaged and motivated to be successful
Students learn by doing. Ask questions of the students, instead of telling them.
Addressing the students by their names and starting the class with some lighthearted humor sets the foundation for a good rapport with the students and has a good impact on students' learning outcome.
Identification of student needs will assist in the retention process.
Following are some student needs that have to be addressed to establish a supportive learning environment.
Set high but realistic goals for students. It is important.
An excited and genuine instructor typically enjoys teaching and loves what they do
Be enthusiastic about your class and have some fun activities to keep student engagement high
Making sure you create an environment where students are engaged in their learning.
I learned that me as an instructor, I can't let my personal emotions effect my duty as an instructor. because if I don't care the students won't care.
I like the idea of a joke a day. I really enjoy getting to know people and this will help me get to know my students so I can keep them engaged.
Providing opportunities for fun and student participation. Don't be too guarded and let students be a major part of their active learning rather than trying to deliver everything outright.
For retention, the classroom environment needs to feel safe and encouraging. It is also important as the instructor to show enthusiasm for their course.
I feel that one of the best keys to student retention is the energy the instructor gives and the passion for making sure each student is learning with confidence .
I feel my teaching is going to be through the way of leading by example, that's how I have always been able to learn best, being able to show and pick up by doing.
Creating an environment for learning with real life experience, engaging the students to share and participate actively.
make things fun and make sure people feel good about themselves
motivate your students to push themselves to be better daily. prepare them for the field.
I learned we must be enthusiastic about what we are teaching. If we're not excited, then why should our students be motivated? Being creative in teaching and grasping the attention of our student is important so they are excited and motivated for the career they are working towards.
