Stop talking so much and let students learn. Learn with your student because no one is smarter than all of you. Wrap your most important learning points in a relevant story. Use lots of attention-focusing strategies. Students can learn at different times and in different locations as well as at the same time and in the same location-the classroom.
Students learn only when they want to learn.
You can bring a student to a fountain, but you can't make her drink unless she is thirsty. Your students will have a greater impact on the future than you will. Create high expectations and students will reach out and stretch. Students have different learning styles. Use a variety of teaching strategies.
