Being a favorite teacher for your students has always been a dream for most teachers—not only for you, but probably other teachers as well.
You might have poured out your best efforts to make it happen, but along the journey, it’s not going to be easy and all smooth.
To be the real favorite teacher, we’ve got your back! In this article, we’re going to spill a few tips that you can apply right away, and make your class the most comfortable you can provide for students.
Have you taken your time to get to know your students’ names in the classroom? Apparently, knowing your students’ names will at least show that you are indeed willing to know the students on a deeper level.
From that on, you can nurture a better rapport with your students—such as asking about their hobbies and interests. That said, students will feel more comfortable to learn in your class and remember that you’re a caring teacher for their lifetimes.
As a teacher, make sure to always appreciate and respect your students. When students do a great job, for example, don’t forget to let them know that you’re proud of them. Aside from that, you can also tell other praises or affirmations that resonate within your students.
Therefore, they will be more motivated to learn—and those positive words will stay in them for a very long time as well.
Although the class will be fun, there still has to be certain rules to help everything goes well and smoothly. From the very beginning, you need to share your goals to make students understand what they need to achieve.
When your students share their stories or struggles about their learning journey, never judge or criticize them. Every student has their own pace to deal with. As a good teacher, you just need to listen and give positive directions to support them.
In the end, the vibes in your classroom will also affect your learning mood. Make sure to create an active and effective learning environment, and you can do it by blending in engaging learning activities!
For example, you can apply role play, simulation, or even project-based learning (PBL) methods to push students to be active learners. Hence, they will not be bored and stay silent in the classroom.
Besides, you can also let students play simple yet immersive AR games that you can make by yourself on Assemblr EDU.
It could be a simple quiz, true-or-false, crosswords, or even treasure hunts. You can pop it up around you, and everyone can play at the same time. Bet it’s going to attract your students even more!
After all, don’t forget to invite your students to practice their critical thinking skills. They can stay active and understand themselves more. Give them the chance to think about what they have learned and understood.
Aside from that, you’ll also experience benefits since you can track all the ups and downs of students’ learning experiences throughout the discussion session.
So, that's all about the points that you can apply in the classroom to make students feel more engaged to learn—and of course, be your students' favorite teacher.
