Remember the famous saying: "Students don't care how much you know, let them know how much you care about them." Although, you don't need to be friends with them. Use the time before and after class to communicate with students more, showing that you are really interested in their lives. Of course, it may take time, but many successful teachers are very aware of the importance of maintaining a good teacher-student relationship with their students.
Zhan Mu escalante, the prototype of the film "A Teacher" in real life, well explained the truth that "there is always a reward for giving" in his teaching career. As long as you continue to invest in maintaining the relationship between teachers and students, you will always be rewarded: students are more inclined to obey your requirements; Even if you make mistakes, it is easier for students to understand.
2. Keep calm when something happens
Sometimes, students may test your bottom line and whether you are qualified. This temptation is manifested in various behaviors that violate discipline (whispering, deserting, etc.). ), it is a test of your classroom management ability. You need to stay calm and respond appropriately in time. But don't overreact.
3. State your discipline and requirements positively.
Some teachers are used to asking students to do nothing and seldom consider what they are asked to do. This negative way of asking questions is often inefficient. Don't expect students to guess your intentions. Set high standards for students (including academic and classroom behavior). Although it is difficult for students to exceed your requirements, they generally do not violate your standards.
The more rules, the better. The key is execution.
You need to control your class. But there is no need to set limits for students everywhere. Post the class rules in a conspicuous place in the classroom.
5. Protect students' self-esteem.
Avoid open confrontation with students. In the long run, there will be no winner in this confrontation. If you have different opinions with students, try to communicate privately. Don't criticize students who make mistakes in front of other students.
6. Keep your eyes moving
Eye contact is the most powerful weapon to maintain class order. Through timely eye contact, about 80% of potential violations can be stopped. Scan the whole class at least once every minute. You only need to focus on 4-5 students at a time. After four or five seconds, turn your attention to another group of students. Most teachers pay little attention to the students sitting at the far end of the classroom, but it is those unruly students who like to sit there.
