Classroom - A place where children learn the fundamental of not only education but life too. A place to explore the inner creativity and strength. Classroom combines teacher and student in a bond. Student of different cultures and backgrounds come together to learn and gain knowledge. Classroom management is required to coordinate and ensure that the learning process is going smooth. Classroom management is used for the fulfilment of the main aim that is making students learn and gain knowledge. There are different students with a different perspective of solving a problem some are good learns who learns at one go but some who not understand at the same time. Classroom management maintains the decorum of learning and solving issues related to class, students and their learning.
1. way to making Classroom more interactive
Classroom being the source of learning should be interactive. If you can’t attract students towards learning then the main motto is affected. A teacher should use more smart tools to make students learn. Practical knowledge is valued more than theoretical knowledge. Teachers should use visual modes to make a student learn and to make the class more interactive. If a student is not asking questions or responding that means he does not understand. This will to some extent can harm their mindset too. To avoid this kind of issue a teacher must make their students understand the topic by whichever means which can make them understand more.
2. ways to be gentle as a teacher
Teacher and student interaction is a two-way process. Either student goes to the teacher to ask the query or teacher come to ask students what they have learned. This to and fro of conversation makes this bond stronger and smoothen the process of classroom management.
Be polite to students because they are learning a new thing that means they will have bit confusion in understanding at the first go. As a teacher be patient and calm and try to solve their query whenever they appear to you for help.
3. ways to motivate students
Win trust of your students. Make them realize that as a teacher you care what they fell and that you’ll be there whenever they’ll need you. Try to be friends with them because as a friend you will understand them better.
There may be times when a student will fail. There may be times when they will feel defeated. There may be times when they will feel alone. At that time they just not need your time but attention too.
Tell them that “they can!”, “I am there for you! “, “Nothing is impossible” these can boost their motivation.
4. ways in which teacher’s behaviour affect student
According to a misconception that a teacher has to be cool enough to build rapport. Sometimes being so cool can backfire on you. There can be times when students will disagree with you and discard what you say because of your “cool image”. This gives the impression that you care least and they can tackle you like any other person.
Teaching is very important and requires a lot of energy and time. Teaching needs dedication. It’s okay that you care about your students, but caring that much can be useless. Caring for students who respect you and obeys you can result in making of your image as a partial teacher, who takes sides .this can be negative for your image and can take your students away from you.
Sometimes you too are irritated and frustrated with your life. It’s obvious that you too as a teacher need time. But never express this in front of students. Never vent your anger on them. This can cause damage to your image in their minds.
Students look up to their teacher as their role models. Never do something which offends them or hurt them. Because being a teacher is the most difficult task in the world.
5. ways to eliminate stress from your teaching career
Just not mental but physical stress too can be killer at times. It’s understandable that you too need time for yourself. As teachers, it’s hard to spare time because teaching is a thankless job. You are preparing a generation which in forthcoming decades will run this world. Spare time for you be it little but do it.
Plan tasks which you have to do the following week. This will reduce your stress and will make your day more organized.
Don’t take piled up work. Saying “NO” sometimes can make you a bit free. Try to avoid more responsibilities. Take responsibilities which you feel that you can fulfil. Take stand for you. Maybe “NO” makes you sound negative but you have to stand for you.
Keep yourself updated with new policies of teaching. Up-to-date with new policies can make your work easier. It will reduce your stress.
Organize your day accordingly. Try to shift responsibilities of your work. Taking help from others don’t state that you don’t know how to work. Sometimes work becomes easier if we share it.
6. ways to handle arrogant, moody and dependent students
There are many types of students in a classroom. Because every student comes from a different society and different section of society. There is a behavioural pattern of every student, try to understand it. Don’t just point these kids out of the crowd because they find this offensive.
Few students are talkative, they just can’t keep quiet. Try to engage these kinds of students in different activities. This will keep them busy and you can make them learn by this method.
Sometimes teacher lacks in understanding students which in return makes them moody and arrogant. Pointing them in front of the whole class makes them arrogant. Don’t point their mistakes in front of the class and do not separate them from the crowd. Instead, talk to them after class.
Don’t argue back with students. The teacher should not ignore what they are hired for. Arguing with students makes them more disrespectful.
Think of giving rewards to them for their good behaviour. Maybe this small step can bring in much change in them. Help them with counselling sessions. Maybe there is a reason for this kind of behaviour of them.
These 6 simple ways can bring in a big change. A teacher should not forget their responsibility because teacher plays a vital role in building a student’s character. The student has infinite imaginations, classrooms give them opportunities to explore themselves. Students spend there most of the time in classrooms apart from their own homes. Classroom Management helps a teacher to handle students because it’s not a matter of fact for one or two students it’s for the whole bunch of student who comes to classrooms to gain knowledge.
