Inclusion of all students is important. If they feel intimidated in class they can come to me afterwards and ask a question in private. If they leave my class happy, I feel they have learnt something. It is very important for the students to know they have the support of the teacher and feel confident in the knowledge that any information given to the teacher is treated in
He offered a lot of help and was willing to make notes on my paper to attempt at helping me make my paper the best it could possibly be. I really appreciate his time and effort and definitely took in to account some of the great and helpful feedback he gave me. Another person I would also like to shortly thank is Professor Miller. She took the time out of her busy schedule to sit down and have a conference with me and go over any questions. It made it easier to figure out exactly what she was looking for in my paper.
An intuitive learner is one who prefers to take information in an abstract form such as ideas, images or ideas. When I am learning something new I like being able to see what it is I am learning and use charts, pictures or diagrams to solve it. Visual learners are those who learn through seeing things, they learn by using a visual aid when studying like colorful outline of test materials. Again when it comes to learning I get it a lot faster when someone shows me by using a diagram, picture, outline or charts. In each subject I tend to color organize my notes and notecards which makes it easier for me to study.
You have a visual/graphic learning style. Recalling pictures, diagrams, or slideshows while taking a test means you visually learned the material. Learning by sight is probably one of the most common learning styles. Educators often use visual aids to teach, because students often understand the material better. Being able to see what has been being talked about in the class all week, makes learning easier for a visual learner.
When listening to a lecture in class, listen for main points and central ideas to help get a better understanding on the subject. While in the work place listening skills are very essential to have. If your supervisor instruct or direct you to complete a certain task in a specific manner, you need to be able to listen to the instruction on what is expected of you, and complete to tasks without any ruffles. Poor listening skills can be unsafe and costly to the company if employees don’t take the time and effort to be aware of the messages that their employers are sending. So while at work be attentive, don’t let distractions hinder you from listening and paying close attention to the message that the supervisor is delivering.
When a coach is in the picture, the educator can discuss these concerns or issues and meet with a coach and begin to develop a relationship where they can delve into solving some of these problems. The relationship with the coach offers the coachee the opportunity to self-reflect and to build a plan to address their concerns, and feel in charge of the destiny. With collegial coaching you have a chance of nonjudgmental conversational with an educational professional that emphasizes the collaborative development of instructional talents rather than the evaluation of teachers. It allows teachers a framework to discuss instructional methods and goals, highlighting the importance of reflection for professional growth and development (Dantonio, 2001). Collegial coaching can be a long-term relationship going from one issue to another.

The opposite learning styles, involving listening and verbal skills, are more difficult for me. I would much rather learn how something works by using it than by listening to someone tell me how it works. When any of my teachers stand in front of the classroom and just reads form the text book. This type of teaching is my kryptonite, the words just pass right through me. To help me my learning process in class's like that i need to recreate the lectured material using my own visual tools and adapt my teacher's preferred teaching methods to my preferred learning styles.
The stability in the classroom is necessary to meet basic needs of students. I believe firmly that if basic human needs are not met then there is no hope for curricular learning to take place. The student needs to be comfortable to learn. To correct a behavior that is already in progress prevention can also be a method of attack. The key is to discover the antecedent and change it, remove it, or take action to create a new one.
going to the bathroom, sharpening a pencil, getting out of their seats, etc.). I think I am beginning to see that such “control” over them in fact takes freedom from them and quality from the whole environment. Do I trust them to make decisions for them selves? My first thought is it depends on the student but maybe I need to be more trusting before they become more responsibility?
