HOW TO BECOME THE BEST TEACHER

To be a good teacher, don't hesitate to listen to suggestions from students. Because by listening to suggestions or criticisms from students, we will know what we lack and what students do not like. So, if you want to be the best teacher for your students, you should not ignore what they say.

Below are some ways to become a good teacher

1.      A good teacher is a strict teacher.

When you see your students begin who are not concentrated, you are not interested in your study, you do not need to get angry right away. You can be a parent for him, try to ask what the problem is.

2.      Be their friend, but don't go too far.

Students just don't like when their teacher starts behaving like a student himself. Stay professional, help students with schoolwork, listen to them, talk about their lives, but remember who you are. Even if you are a young specialist, and you are almost of the same age with your students, there is no need to use all those slang words (even if you use them in your everyday life).

Your students will find it rude and unprofessional. As far as you understand, this is not the best method to get a good reputation. Your students just will not take you seriously.

3.      Be assertive.

Students sometimes don't like teachers who are too gentle or vice versa. Just stay consistent!

4.      A good teacher always has objectives.

When you start a lesson, make your students understand clearly what they will learn today. You should have clear objectives, as such a plan will help students concentrate and know what they are supposed to do during this class.

5.      More explanations.

Even if you consider yourself a cool teacher who explains everything in a way that even the stupidest person would understand you, don't be lazy to explain it to your students several times, and what is even more important try to do that in different manners. Sometimes, they really don't get it, but it's not because they are stupid: maybe some of them just think different.

Be patient, and explain your material over and over again, making sure all students understand what you're talking about. You know, how difficult it will be for them to learn further, if they don't get the basis.
