I have been teaching for 5 years. I have noticed how I have not only become more confident in the class room, also more complacent. This has affected my teaching style. I became more relaxed in the class room; my students became more relaxed in handing their assignments and studying. This term I have sat down an evaluated how I was going to approach teaching. I now have strict time line of when assignments are due. Beginning of each week I give my students an agenda for the week which includes what lab assignments, pages from the book we will be discussing and if their will be a quiz or test that week. One thing I will continue to do and engage the students before class starts and in the hallway between classes. This has given my student confidence that I do care how their life is going. Shows that I am concerned, I also show support and given them encouragement. Have to earn your students trust.
