Be supportive and understanding as students go through the process of repetitive learning. Although some students may become bored, remember that repetition is an essential practice. |
|
 |
Never forget to compliment a student's work. Offer all students encouragement and positive reinforcement. |
|
 |
Encourage students to work independently by maximizing their interest in their work. Time students according to each child's individual pace while solving a particular problem. Remember that patience, not time, is of essence. |
|
 |
Memorization is a key element in developing a child's intellectual abilities. Recognize that overstressing memorization, however, could have a negative impact on proactive learning. |
|
 |
For younger students, play can become a means of motivating them to work on their workbooks. This can be a crucial factor in developing interest and the capabilities to solve problems. |
|
 |
Allow students to figure out answers on their own. Independence will encourage them to persevere and undertake even more difficult problems. |
|
 |
Maintaining a good instructor-student relationship is extremely important for effective teaching and learning. A student must possess a certain amount of trust in order to feel comfortable approaching the instructor without hesitation. An instructor can build that trust by providing positive reinforcement even when a student does not make the amount of progress expected. |
