Students with disability tend to fall between the crack. If you know the signs of the disability you will be able to catch and help that student.

Group projects

Group projects are good to help the students that have trouble engaging in class. But be careful for those students that work well on their own and do not like working in groups.

Eye contact

By using eye contact with the students it let the student know that you are intuned with them or letting them know you are watching them.

Make up test

I allow the student to make up a test the next time they come to class but I let them know that it is their responsability to come to me to make it up.

Using different tools to teach

By using different techniques I find that each student learns in different ways.

Organization

I find that if you are early for class and have everything you need prior to class, then the students are more relaxed. And to them it seems that you know what you are doing and teaching.

Wanting the students to like you

You will never get all of the students to like you. What you need to do is have them respect you. I think that is more important.

Students cheating

Students cheat to see if they can get away with it. By walking around the room, having them put all book bags and paper on the floor this reduces the cheating option.

Dealing with nonmotivated students

Students that are not motivated are hard to get to interact with the class however I do try to make them my helper.
