The wrong question is the one you did not ask

Hello Everyone,

Asking your peers for advice should never been seen as a bad thing. Sometimes pride takes over in people, and they continue to do things improperly, just because they are afraid to ask a question.

The book made a great point when stating, "Instructors by their very nature like to help", which I find is true every time.

Hi Jennifer,
The instructor should always welcome questions! So many really benefit from others asking questions.

Exactly... I always encourage my students to ask questions because someone else may have the same question, but be afraid to ask.

I agree with this wholeheartedly. In career colleges there may be several seasoned instructors as well as new-completely instructors. Everyone has a piece of advice to share - even if it's something simple like where to store your supplies in the classroom. Developing the comfort within the school as well as knowing you are supported by your fellow staff significantly reduces the anxiety of new students and a new position.
