Classroom Management

Do you imagine yourself reacting this way with one of your students? How can we improve classroom management?

Well, here I enclose a few tips that you may find useful.

- Try to use a point system with your students. At the end of the month you should prize the students with most points among the class.

- Always congratulate good attitudes.

- Try to keep negative liders in the first seats.

- Don’t attack students who are misbehaving, talk to him/her in private to check if there is any problem. If the student keeps misbehaving, then you have to take strict measures about it.

- Always bring extra activities to the classroom in case students finish quicker than you thought.

To be honest, I’d like to throw some erasers to some of my students. Teaching is a very stressful profession since we have to deal with so many students in small rooms and a lot of paperwork. Patience is the key word that we, as priests of education, have to give as a sacrifice to the gods every single day of our lives. Try to be very organized and if you are stressed don’ take it with your students.
