This coruse proved to be a lot more intense thani expected but i learnt a lot of strategies especially from all the feedback i am getting in the forums. I am actually enjoying this. I learnt methods of challenging my students which i intend to implement as soon as possible.

Thanks! There is no better feeling than when a lesson is really flowing and everything is falling into place. You are at your best and the students are actively learning. All's right with the world! yes i am very passionate about what i do.

just finished 101. it really reminded me of how much we take for granted if we have been teaching for a while. i particularly like the ares which challenged us to step out of our comfort zone a little. This i intend to implement to challenge myself a little.

the importance of credibility

it is very important that students be able to trust everything you say to them as an instructor. they are usually very disappointed if they find they cannot. unnecessary boasting only sets one up for ridicule. it is my experiencce that they are ususlly so thirsty for knowledge that they respect you so much and feel disillusioned when they find your information is deliberately incorrect.
