About me
1. Building Relationships
I understand that building relationships in the classroom is extremely powerful for students' behavioral and academic success. So I first build relationships by meeting with students during office hours and creating team-building projects like student and teacher intraction. I Attend student sporting events discussion. Finally, I like to have a few minutes of "real talk" each week in my classroom for students to discuss topics that are important to them, and that helps break down walls and build solidarity in the classroom.
2. Student-Centered Discussions
Being the "sage on the stage" in the classroom is quite good, I admitt but I realize that this does little to engage my students in deep thinking. I want my students to be at the center of their learning. Previously, when we read a book or short story, I'd ask questions to the whole class. Inevitably, the same five or six students would answer the questions, and I would assume everyone understood. To avoid this assumption, I create small groups of three or four students, and they answer the questions in those small groups first, ensuring all students have an opportunity to participate.
I have seen an increase in comprehension, speaking and listening skills, and test scores. Implementing student-centered discussions is fairly easy to do—just create thought-provoking questions that dive deep into the content. The rewards are definitely worth it.
3. Making Connections
I have come to discover that It is absolutely essential that the teaching methods you use help students make connections to their learning. Real-life connections make learning interesting and relevant for students.
When I teach Calculation Subject such as Mathematics, Accounting, Economics , for example, I have my students focus on the idea of setting goals. They examine how ambition can be both positive and negative, and I have them study recent world leaders to help them understand the real-life implications of this concept.
