Get Your Students Hired
While teaching a butchers yield I have had to come up with different approaches and when all fails I have allowed students that understand the material to try a hand at teaching the students that dont understand I have found that just another voice or face can sometimes redirect the students frustration and allow them to learn the material.
Hi Brian:
Teachers who try to view their class from the students perspective will contribute much more to a class than those that do it juyst their way. That's great you can appreciate that point of view in your planning.

Preparation is a big part of my daily or weekly routine before class even starts and I always spend time to see the class from the student's perspective. I also lead by example when in the classroom.
Hi Ricky:
You mention an important item, that is setting the right pace. This usually varies from class to class, so having extra material if you get done early is a good idea, or, alternatively, planning for if you have to go overtime or carry over to another day.

Preparing is a major portion of the training. You have to think outside the box sometimes in order to get the point across. If you are going along with the lesson, then you notice that some students are not quite getting the full picture. You have to change the pace and take them out to lab and show a demonstration of the lecture. Allow the students to take a breather and followup with them later.
Hi Chris.
This wonderful. I think having students teach is one of the best ways they learn. It's so importan t, I add it to my regular curriculum.
