Get the students to verbalize the material whenever possible. Develop mnemonics to assist initial learning. Group relevant material together. Have students write possible exam questions or discuss which topics will be covered on the exam. Use these examples for discussion.
Teaching is a vocation much as carpentry is.
Master craftsmen recognized long ago that the best way to develop skill is through an apprenticeship. Consider all of your professors as mentors. If they are good, try to determine the characteristics that make them successful and adapt these for your personal use. If they are poor, pick out the mistakes and modify them to best suit you and your students learning style. Draw attention to the big picture.
