Tips for a happy classroom!😃
Knowing that, in their vulnerability, they can trust you to guide them through their learning process.
How:
Compliment your student, ask them how they are, make them feel welcome and excited to learn.
Feel out your student, some students are more straightforward than others and they might not want to chit-chat before the lesson, look for clues in their behavior that can help you decipher.
If a student is rude, shrug it off and remember your goal as a teacher is to impart knowledge.
Smiles are a great way to say:
“I welcome you into my space and I am here to help you in any way I am able.” without actually saying it.
How:
Greet your student with a smile when they enter the classroom.
When your student makes a mistake, smiling is a great ice breaker and allows them to know and understand that the learning path is full of errors, that this is the process of learning.
End the lesson with a smile and let them know that you look forward to seeing them again.
