New Instructor

Being a instructor is something I never thought I'd become. Being a Machinist for over 25 years is what thought I was going to do for the rest of my career.

Becoming an Instructor is something my wife suggested, but I didn't think I could do. I was never comfortable in front of large group of people, and I know I have the experience and knowledge, but I didn't feel I had the confidence of how to convey the information needed to becoming a machinist. My wife purely went off the fact that I enjoyed training new people, oddly enough… >>>

Humor in teaching

Humor is key sometimes as is relating a real life story when teaching. Keeps them awake and interested.

New Substitute

I have been in my field for 25 years, and I'm a new substitute instructor at a trade school. The course work has already been established. Right now I would like to have tips from other more experienced subs how they go about conducting classes that are random. Thank you in advance.
