Artistic Teaching


Many believe that our first school is our home and therefore our first teacher are our parents. We learn all the basics of life through our parents and this role of being a teacher is mostly played by the mothers since most commonly the father is the one working to support the need of the family.

By the time we reach the right age we start going to school. Starting from preparatory school,kindergarten, grade school, junior high school,senior high school then collage then for some masterals. Here we learn how to read and right,literature,culture,history and we study on some specific things; laws,sciences,etc. Thanks to our teacher who are ever patient to with us.

What is then the secret of teaching. I had attended a seminar on how to teach,and the speaker from Germany said "In teaching you have to capture the attention of your audience in the first thirty seconds of your talk,unless you are successful in this thirty seconds your whole time teaching in front of that class will be turned into nothing". Your conversation must be lively specially when you are teaching young people who has very short listening span. Audience participation is also important in effective teaching. People become more interested when they feel part of it. It is not just pure giving but also receiving. And remember when you ask thenvtheue opinion on certain matters never forget to include it during your discussion, they feel important when they  think that they are heard be they participate and become more attentive to you.

Another important tip in teaching is using stories as an example specially in younger generation. Young people love to listen to stories and they even prefer better on your own personal experiences. Of course another thing that teachers should not take for granted us the appearance;"first impression lasts".

Some teachers ko would ask the student to write what re thy expecting from the classes o that she I'll have a clue in what are their interest and uses these informations to catch the attention of her students. A well prepared class is the mist important thing in teaching. The students should not feel that it is they who are giving you the class not you giving it to them. Even if you are not not too expert in the matter you have to study bout it very careful and make sure you yourself is convince with what you are saying.and of course never forget to wear your biggest and most accommodating SMILE.
