It is useless to teach when students are not motivated. One can only have the information processed and digested in a stand of filtered out when their mind is open when they believe in themselves that they can do it. And if the ways of motivation are rightly chosen, if it's carried out by a driving, dedicated and patient teacher, gradually, and often quite swiftly, the gap in-betweens will be filled, and the learning begins.

Thu, 09 Jul 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Why Should Students be Praised for their Achievements in the Classroom? Even though some people might disagree with the idea of praising students in the classroom, I hold a strong belief that it is of paramount importance.

The former will benefit from cementing a healthy relationship with the latter; and the latter will be able to strengthen his or her confidence. Conversely, it could have a detrimental effect on both. For this reason, I will exemplify the advantages and...  [Read more]
