Listening

As instructors we often feel that we need to be the one talking or in control. However, when there is an angry student, we should be silent while we are listening.

Hi Bronzel,
You are definitely on point! Listening is key!

As being an instructor i have learned that just listening can be a very powerful tool. Whether good or bad happy or angry i always try to listen first. Most people just want to be heard, to be able to express their feeling and thoughts.

By listening to that student, you may gain some insight into the why's of his anger.
