It is very important to be role model for the students and pass along all the information to sparkle their interest or the passion about knowledge of food. We need to keep in contact with the "real world" and we can do this in any different ways.  

In this topic I  have learned that we need to remind the students, and keep reinforcing, all the sanitation practices. 

Team work is most important in the restaurant world because a better outcome can be achieved as a group not as an individual 

Students need to understand the value of many different aspect of the restaurant life: to be an accomplished chef it is not enough to cook  well but it is extremely important to have psychology training and enough math knowledge to maintain a healthy business

Being a new instructor it was very important for me to read how student need to be kept motivated and how to trigger their interest.  Understanding their backgrounds and the different age groups is fundamental to find the right way to communicate with everyone of them.
