Connecting with the Student

Being ethical is by far the most important thing of all. Your students will pick up on it if you are not. Remember actions speak louder than words.

You want what?

Do your students know what to expect from your class. What will they be learning? Will it be presented in such a way that they will remember what you said.

Know your Students

It's important to know the type of learning method that works for your students. You will have less frustration, both in them and you if you know this.

Learning environment

Why should I be here? Is this what I want for my future? Are students asking these questions? These should be answered quickly with a YES! and the WHY they should behind that. If you don't believe in your subject matter, then who will. Your the "expert" (to the student), so show that you are enthusiastic about it.

Areas of Competency

It's important to be knowledgable of your subject matter and to be fluent in using it. Simply knowing does not make a good instructor. What are some ways to utilize the information of your subject so that the student REALLY wants to learn more about it?

A quick self-assessment

This is the first time that I have had any training as such with the MaxKnowledge. I think the ability to see the different types of learning and how best to use them has helped me the most. I have only just started teaching and these courses are quite helpful.
