In teaching, teachers should be eclectic on what they want to explain in class, make smart choices and use appropriate strategies that fulfill students’ needs and goals. They are source of guidance and leadership in the classroom. As known, teachers have an immense impact on student’s success especially providing them with full attention so they can be able to feel valued and comfortable through learning.

The Instructor was talking concerning Disrupting poverty: 5 powerful classroom tools teachers must follow. The presenter mentioned those tools which might be summarized as follows:
1. Caring Relationship and support:
2. High Expectation and Support
3. Professional accountability for Learning
4. Courage and will to take actio
Students who have close, positive and supportive relationships with their teachers will attain higher levels of achievement than those students with more conflict in their relationships.
in other words . students who feels a strong personal connection to her teacher, talks with her teacher frequently, and receives more constructive guidance and praise. Thus the student will show more engagement in learning, behave better in class and achieve at higher levels academically. Positive teacher-student relationships draw students into the process of learning and promote their desire to learn.

  1. I liked your topic. Teachers have to build good relationships with their learners. Interpersonal relationships are the bases of a successful classroom climate.

There are many ways to design an effective lesson where the teacher should be attentive and make sure that all the students are involved all the time in the lesson and the activities.

Being that much attentive , as a teacher,and communicating that to the students throu...
