Encourage questions

•

A teacher that has the students’ best interest at heart should not be so

focused on lecturing that you allow no room for

questions

. You should

invest more in getting the students interested and engaged in the subject

matter instead of just making sure that all the knowledge is conveyed. It is

best that you don’t explain ideas or facts uninterrupted for more than 5

minutes at a time. Some students may get bored and lose concentration.

Instead, set a good example by asking questions and also invite the

students to ask questions that steer the discussion.

•

Although the questions asked by the students need answers, it doesn’t

always have to be you providing all the answers. You should also allow the

students to volunteer and answer classmate questions.
