I have found that when my students feel that I really do care about their success, they work harder so that they do not disappoint me. I have never said the word disappoint, but they have expressed it to me." We don't want to let you down"

I have found that smiling helps create a bond with your students. They feel that you are happy to be teaching them and that you care about them. I have had other instructors say "I can't believe the things that you say to students and they still like you" What I say is constructive criticism, but with a smile. Even if it is a constructive criticism they perceive that I care enough to tell them and want them to succeed.
