In my previous lessons I used colourful PowerPoint presentations as well as useful and engaging videos. I like to get to know my students to understand how they learn best and I can cater to their needs. I love lessons that are dynamic and conversational, where both parties are talking and engaging in the material and I am not just talking at my student. I can adjust the content of my class around what my student wants to learn. I have a broad range of knowledge in psychology and research methods/statistics. I also have access to my university library where I can get content from a wide range of books and scientific articles and incorporate these into our lessons.
I believe we work best when we are enjoying ourselves so I always like to add fun into the lessons. We take quizzes and play games to ensure the class is engaging.
I also believe positive reinforcement is the best way to encourage learning. My class is a judgement free zone where I focus on my students strengths and how we can use their strengths to help them learn and enjoy the subject.
I am patient and kind, I do not mind taking my time and repeating myself in order to ensure my student fully grasps the content of our lessons.
For me my main focus is that I can make my lessons enjoyable and comfortable for my students so that they are excited to learn and can engage in the subject matter.
