Here are 3 ‘How to’ for implementing effective teaching strategies
Make a Plan Chart
This is the first and most important step in implementing effective teaching strategies. Before you go and implement something you have learned today make a plan. Make a plan before you talk to your seniors. Tell them that you have sorted out some strategies to improve your teaching and your students’ performance.
Talk to the Head
Once you have mapped out everything you are going to do in class discuss it with your head. Take him in confidence so you don’t have to face embarrassment before the class. Let him know your plans and strategies you are going to implement.
Share with Students
Share your new strategies with your students. Don’t tell them the exact plan but let them know the little changes you want to bring in the class for their good.
