Good Teaching

When I first started teaching many of my colleagues advise me on how to teach well. There were a few ideas I like and some I dislike. For a year I think I tried them all to find out what works. The ideas and styles range from classroom management,discipline and learning strategies. There was no one right way of teaching. After teaching a year I realize I had to find my own way of understanding and connecting to the students. I also realize experience is the best teacher. After you have used effective strategies and observe veteran teachers you will began to become a good teacher over time. All teachers come from different backgrounds and bring something special to the classroom which makes a difference.
