cheating students

there are many ways students can try and cheat. however, encourage them to study. the knowledge they recieve will last a lifetime, no one can take that away. you only cheat yourself and you end up left with nothing gained or contributed

guest speakers

having a guest speaker come in and speak to students is a great idea. it gives students a chance to visualize themselves as successful and happy. the reason i chose to go back to school after so many years was i saw how happy people were when i went to dr appts

student motvation

constantly remind them of the bigger picture. why they are here and benefits of sticking it out until the end. it's more than just a new career, it's a new life.
