I allow them discuss time.  It allows them to think about the topic in small groups, and it allows for talk to each other which they so long to do anyway.\n\nI also create a lot of activities and games.  My students are in high school, but they still like playing little kid games like word searches, memory, pictionary, etc.\n\nI also have them expand from small to complex.  For example, they have to give a word, then a phrase, then a sentence, then a question.  It increases word power and critical thinking.\n\nI teach Spanish so many of these activities are easier to do. Please, tell me what subject you teach, and I might be able to expand my practices according to your area.

Most teachers will reward you for simply doing your work and doing it on time. Paying attention and understanding what the teacher expects is probably the most important key to getting good grades. When you don't understand, ask for help. Most teachers tend to give better grades to the students they know are really trying and want to help you. There is no secret, read your books, do your homework, and ask questions.

i think you get a teacher mark so do well in the other work getting good marks and impressing them might help.

Make as many power point presentations as possible. \n\nAlso, use the board to write out things you want them to learn and remember. One teacher I used to evaluate used to put an outline of the day's lesson on the board and followed it closely. That way the students knew what the points she was going to cover were, and they were able to see where they were in the lesson by looking at the outline. This technique was also valuable to absent students because other students in the class had notes in the order they were given and discussed.\n\nIn my own teaching, I used to agree very much with Ted Sizer and his theory of student as worker. My students were required to give 6-7 oral presentations in groups of 3-5 by blind draw. In giving the presentations, they were required to create visuals and to use them as they presented. They were taught to organize and use their visuals in such a way as to eliminate the use of notes. Each group was given a set of questions to respond to, all of which required research and extensive reading. This was a visual and oral activity for the most part and was very successful in that the students learned much and enjoyed the process as well. \n\nGood luck. I hope this helps.

The best and most overlooked way to improve classroom education of any kind is to introduce the use of boardgames. I have taught for over ten years all over the world, and only when I use boardgames do students voluntarily insist on extending their classes for two, three, even four hours. Not only that but they then show the most rapid improvement. \nCheck out the following websites for some useful background info.\n\nhttp://www.rpg.net/sites/edu/1-1.html...\n\nhttp://www.rpg.net/sites/edu/1-2.html...\n\nhttp://subscriptions.fasfind.com/wwwtool...\n\nhttp://www.gama.org/uploads/ns/xx/nsxx7l...\n\nGive it a try and you will be amazed. At least you will be helping to break the monopoly that the big textbook publishers have over the education industry.

I was told to remember one word from one of my high school teachers that has stuck with me and has influenced my entire life and has paid dividends, not only monetary, but experience as well.  That word was "Education".  Learn as much as you can about as much as you can.  It has made me a very versatile person in my career and my life in general.

1.) Many take courses in July to increase in salary grid or for professional growth.\n2.) Many work (summer school, camps, etc.) to supplement income.\n3.) Many chillax and get ready for another stressfull year. This is very important. This can be done a variety of ways, but not limited to: traveling, hanging around the house, enjoying some fine wine and beer.\n4.) Catch up on life (house chores/projects, contacting friends/relatives, etc). It's unbelievable how much teachers leave for the summer.\n5.) Professional reading. Never have time to do it in the school year on the latest pedagogy.\n6.) Prepare units and long range plans for next year.\n\nBy early August most teachers are thinking and getting set for school. By mid August, many are in schools getting classrooms and materials ready for the first day.\n\nI have done # 1 and # 2 way too many times... this summer, I am going to chill at home, catch up on life, improve my units and read professional 5 books gathering dust this past year. lol

In teaching its ow u fare in the practice teaching or observation class thats important and not the personal interview.So insist on taking a class to the students under the observation of the interviewer(s).\nBe thorough with ur subject, lesson and the topic that u r going to discuss. Make the class more interactive so that a favorable impression will be created in the mind of the students.\nBe prepared to answer the questions like\nWhy do you choose teaching as ur profession?\nWhat is ur professional ambition?\nWhat is ur personal ambition in ur profession?\nWhat makes u think u r the best teacher?

1. Give different versions of the test so they can't copy their work. \n2. Work in pairs.\n3. What about money for some more to help you with your teaching??

Take it from me.  Talk to your student advisor at your college or university.  What type of teacher you deside to become will deside on which classes you need to take.  \nWhich grade will pay more?  Ok, here are some things I do know.  Usually College Professors get paid the most.  It also depends on where you live and how musch that state pays for teachers.  Public schools pay more per year that Private schools do.  Most Public schools pay by the year and not by salary like Public school.  Also it is like with any other job, you get paid by your experience.  I know for a fact that most teachers salary or rate of pay is baced on their experience (yrs of teaching, what level, etc).

Get better teachers.  \n\nBy the way, didn't you know what teachers made prior to becoming one.  If the answer is no, you support my position that teachers aren't all that bright.  If the answer is yes - be quite about it.\n\nFACT 1 The ones we have now scored the lowest on college entrance exams of ANY profession.\n\nFACT 2 On an hourly basis, teachers are among the highest paid for those with only a 4 year degree. \n\nFACT 3 Teachers work less than 3/4  the number of hours as the rest of the work force.\n\nI think you should consider yourself lucky for what you have and instead of putting energy into getting more money, put that same energy into becoming a better teacher.\n\nIF YOU CAN READ THIS, THANK YOUR PARENTS FOR IT IS MORE THAN LIKELY THEY WHO GAVE YOU THE LOVE OF READING, NOT YOUR TEACHER.

The best way to learn this kind of stuff is to become a student-teacher! It means that you go to different schools ( usually a week each) and you get to go into classrooms except all you have to do is wacth how the students/teacherss interact and mark down what are the best ways of teaching in a certain environment/classmood/subject/etc...\n\nMy sister is doing it and is telling me it's the best way right now!\n\nShe also says the best way of learning is " EXPERIENCE"\n\nHope we helped! GOOD LUCK!

Work really hard, learn as much as you can from good teachers and meet as many people in the industry as you can (network!)

Consider a part-time college teaching gig.  It gives you a great avenue to hone your skills at presenting ideas to people whom you need to inform.  A very valuable skill to have as you go into your career.\n\nYou would be surprised at how time much we Econ's spend teaching in the corporate work place.  Heck, we're usually the only one's who have a clue how to approach something and have the skills and the "toolbox" to tackle it.
