Making a positve first impresssion
As an instructor you should present to your class motivation, enthuasism and energy to learn. The instuctor should also be very professional and knowledgable of the course subject and materials in order to have a successful course.
I agree. When instructors show a lot of passion with a course, the students will become very passionate.
A first impressions can be posiitve if you relate the material to student interests, find out what is of interst to them, what are their choices of careers are that motivates them to attend school.
Hi Wanda,
Good point. You have to bring it to the class room because the students will only be as excited about the content as you make it. Have fun with your teaching and enjoy your students and with this effort will come the benefits of knowing you have impacted lives.
