Learning from Instructor and Student Introductions

It is important to know your students and for students to know their instructors. An introduction from the student gives the instructor ideas of where the students are in their educational path. The student should feel comfortable knowing the educational, achivements and how human their instructor is through an introduction

First impression

It is very important to make that first impression a good one. Students are nervous, they look for a leader, a knowledgeble instructor, a mentor and some look to challenge the instructors from day one. It is wise to show students that you have their best interest at heart and that you are proficient in what you do.

Creating good atmosphere

I find that making students comfortable in the classroom, create a good learning atmosphere. Getting the students to be comfortable enough to open-up and communicate with you is often revealing of their understanding of the material being taught. Melissa Quinn
