Developing as an instructor
I really did not know that model, manager, and motivator were so important in teaching since it is my first time as an instructor
Denise,
If you focus on developing your expertise in each of these three areas you will be well on your way in becoming a competent instructor. I wish you much teaching success.

Hi Denise,
While I have only been teaching just over two years, it's amazing how I didn't even realize this development was framed into the stages of model, manager, and motivator. I know now that I have been doing this all along; as I have probably gotten my best training with my own sons, being their role model, managing their learning processes, and motivating them to dig deeper by using critical thinking.
All 3 are very important trates. Modeling is important to me as i try to lead by example.
