Staying Close
Students often feel alone and the support that comes from a mentor can ease some student tensions. Any tensions that can be eased will open the door for learning. It's also nice to know that someone cares...
Awni,
Thank you for this post. What, specifically, have you found to be the most effective strategies you employ to keep students focused and motivated?
Jeffrey Schillinger
I am a compassionate teacher, who remains sensitive to student’s educational needs, employs effective listening, provides individual and whole group support, and offers positive encouragement and reinforcement to keep students focused and motivated.
Thanks, Scott. What are one or two specific "actions" you look for?
Jeffrey Schillinger
I find that if you just pay attention to the students actions it can go a long way in starting the mentoring process.
