Student success should be a teacher’s number one priority. For some students, success will be getting a good grade. For others, it might mean increased participation in class. You can help all of your students attain their full potential, regardless of the way they measure success.
Cultivate a well-rounded academic environment in your classroom by setting high, but not impossible, expectations for your students. Push students to achieve higher standards and they will eventually get there — and along the way, offer lots of praise. Some may take more time than others, but all students want to be told, “You’re smart and you’re doing a good job.”
New ideas and research that can enhance your day-to-day teaching become available yearly. Keeping up with the latest information through online forums, workshops and professional journals can make you a better teacher. This will lead to increased student interest and greater success. In addition, teaching the same lessons each school year can become monotonous over time. This can result in uninspired teaching. Students will definitely discover this and become bored and distracted. Including new ideas and teaching methods can make a huge difference.
When you vary teaching methods, you provide students with a greater opportunity to learn. Every student has different strengths and weaknesses. Instead of just focusing on one method that only appeals to a single learning style, varying your teaching techniques allows you to cater your lessons to different learning styles. Students will be more successful if they are not bored.
Regardless of your personal feelings, it is important that you work with each of your students to ensure their success. Be excited with them. Act like you want to be at work and you’re happy to be there and see them. Find out what their hobbies are, take an interest in their personal lives and try to incorporate some of that into your lessons.
