I have learned many things in my in these past two school years. First of all, I have learned that I can handle more a one time than I thought I could. I have definitely become a multi-tasker. More so than ever before. I have learne that tomorrow is a new day and that it will get done eventually. I am starting to learn patience with myself and that I don't have to do everything perfectly.
Now about the students, I have learned that if you treat them with respect, they will treat you with respect. If you take the time to help them, they will make an effort to complete work. If you show them that you genuinely care for them, they will do anything to make you proud.
You are so right. Students mostly need to believe that their teachers respect them and care about them. You have to connect with your students on a very human, personal level before you can expect to get anything out of them academically speaking.
