Meditate an hour before class. During your mediation try to concentrate on what moves you will be teaching, and try to in vision a situation where the technique would be able to be applied. Also the most important key to teaching (no matter what the subject may be) is to be repetitive. If it means teaching the same few techniques for three lessons in a row it is truly the best way to get it to stick with your students. Good luck, I'm sure you will be a great teacher.

Here are a few to get you started.  There are so many of them that it is almost impossible to limit the list.  Just do a search for any topic in teaching and you'll be sure to find great sites.  Have fun with it!

first of all, make sure your spelling and grammar are correct...otherwise, the principal may think you need more class time.  also, list your reasons clearly and concisely--even in a bulleted list--so that both you and the principal can refer to any particular one that concerns you.  don't be a wise guy--no adult likes that when there's a serious matter on the table.  and it really couldn't hurt one bit to use a little flattery--defer to his/her knowledge, but be clear about your own reasons to want to continue going on field trips.  learning outside the classroom makes some things easier to understand.  using your senses (touch, hearing, sight, etc.) often is the best way to learn something.  good luck...let us know what happens!!

To teach effectively, you have to be an entertainer, a politician, and a content expert. Effective teaching begins with understanding what you teach and desiring to influence the lives of children. Unfortunately, that only goes so far. You have to fit into the school, understand your role, avoid legal entanglements, and navigate a treacherous path as a rookie teacher. It's impossible to sum up in a soundbyte, so I wrote a book about it called Rookie Teaching for Dummies. No commerical, just a link if you want to learn more.

practice, practice, practice! Experience is the best teacher. \n\nI've found that the best way is to write programs for other people. That way, you are challenged to try new things (web service, database connections, automation) that you might not have tried on your own.

if its real important to you you should hire a teacher or pay for teaching classes      p.s. when you give a person a best answer comment then you will earn 3 pts so it would be nice to help a brother out

As a former teacher trainer in Asia,\n\nGotta set up a routine for you lesson. Let's say you have young ones, start with a song/chant, and then into your "grammar/language" lesson (the crappy books they give you to follow). Seatwork (appropriate for the level). Then end it off with a story. You can ask simple questions for the story, "Find something red. What page was the boy eating the ice cream?" Always good to add a few language games into your lesson. One simple game is for two students with swatters to hit the correct vocab card. Plain, but better than repeating the words. You can make up a whole bunch of language games. Try bingo, but with pics of vocab. Play Simon Says.\n\nI find when I was teachign ESL, my greatest problem and my teachers' greatest problem was the lack of resources. Here is a site: http://www.readinga-z.com/\n\nBuy a $50 yearly member ship and download the books. Get your school to pay for you. This will provide you with 100s of reading activities for ALL levels!

If you have a philosophy of education, review it.\n\nDo you know the latest concerns of educators in your area? \n\nWhat specialty will you offer? Even if you haven't taught before, you need to be ready to sell yourself as good at something.\n\nLook each person in the eye, smile, but don't grin or giggle, if you don't know the answer to a question, say so. Ask for clarification if you don't understand what someone says.\n\nBest wishes.

ask them nicely to demonstrate for you, so that you get a better idea of what exactly they want from you. if they can't, i don't think they have a clue what teaching is about. if they do a good job, then just copy it.

Understand what you're teaching and see it from your students' perspective. Motivate the students to study and show them by example how and when to study. \n\nTeach them the ways of "sang froid" (French: cold blood) - not allowing their personal lives to get in the way of their studies. If they giv up every time their heart is broken or they have a row with someone, they'll never get anywhere in life.\n\nAlso, make them understand that nothing comes from laziness or mere dreaming, but much can come from hard work. Boost their confidence so that they can overcome fear (the most common cause of any block, including writer's block). Use proverbs to help them, e.g. there's nothing to fear but fear itself.\n\nFinally, the best teachers are those that care so some experience as a social worker/counsellor will help.

Have a good attitude. Most teachers have great ideas that cannot fly without students being willing to go on the journey.  Nobody can have fun if they are constantly being corrected or yelled at nor can a teacher be fun if they are always weary of behavior.

Go to class one day with a big duffel/sports bag. Put anything in the bag - old newspapers, soft toys, you name it. Right at the top of the bag, put something that you think might interest your students - depending on their age and sex it might be a newly released CD, or a favorite sports magazine, or the latest in hand held PS2's. Make sure the bag is zipped closed. As you enter the classroom put the bag somewhere very obvious (but within easy reach of yourself). \nStart your class in the normal way, and somewhere within the first 5 minutes mention to them that you have a bag of goodies you want to use for today's class. But you first have to deal with some grammar/vocab/etc. Handle the class like you normally would. Maybe remind them that you have to finish the work to get to the bag with stuff. Make sure your face gets all excited when you mention the bag - they might start to wonder what is in the bag. Try to ignore the rowdy ones and concentrate on the well behaved ones. If the class gets very rowdy, just touch the bag, or maybe just take a sideways glance at it. Make sure your kids see this. \nNow, if the class didn't behave like you would have wanted them to behave, end the class (when time is up) with a sentence like, "Oh, I'm so sorry we didn't have time to look at what's in the bag. Act like they're not in class with you, open the bag, take out the noce goody at the top (zip up again and don't let them see what's at the bottom of the bag), and start paging through the magazine/take out your diskman and listen to the CD (making sure they see the cover)/ or do whatever you want to  with the goodie. \nDON'T say anything to them after that. Just shrug your shoulders if they have any comments.\nNow, say they were good, you could use that article in your class just before time's up. \nFor the next lesson they have with you, again bring your bag. This time make sure you have something they are really keen about, and that you have a plan on how to incorporate it in your classroom. Follow the same procedure as the first lesson. (If you used a CD the first time, maybe come to class listening to it over your diskman, or play it on the classroom CD player until they start to arrive for class.) Again, if they're not good - no bag. \nKeep this up for at least 4/5 lessons. Sometime during these 4/5 lessons, tell them that they didn't have time to work with the bag's contents, so that means they will have to do extra homework - the reason for this is that the contents of the bag would have helped them to understand something better/practice a grammar concept/practice some vocabs. But because they didn't get to the bag, they have to do extra homework to make up for the lack of practice.\nTry it. I used it on a few classes at different schools, with different age groups, and in all instances, it worked by the 3rd lesson. \nTo keep them on their toes afterwards, why don't you plan for some type of fun activity once every 4/5 lessons. Maybe help them to learn their favorite song's words. Let them bring their own CD's to class and have a listen to the CD day - be sure to have them rate each other's CD's and say why they like it/don't like it (all in good English, of course). \nTry not to involve the director or another teacher, if possible. This will show them that you can't handle them and they will feel totally in control Even if some are punished by the director, they will become martyrs, and you will be able to get less out of them. Always try to handle the problems without losing your cool. They like seeing teachers squirm - it is a natural drug for them! \nGood luck, and if you try it, let me know how it worked.
