6. THE CONCEPT OF EFFECTIVE
TEACHING
Monitoring progress and providing feedback Effective
teachers closely monitor each student’s achievements.
This enables them to provide every one of their students
with regular feedback on their performance, and gives
them valuable information to assess the impact of their
teaching
7. ENCOURAGING STUDENT
RESPONSIBILITY
Effective teachers teach in a way that encourages students
to take greater responsibility for their own learning.
They make sure their students know what the goals of the
learning program are; understand how these goals will be
assessed; know whether they are on track to achieve
success; and are actively involved in evaluating their own
learning.
8. HAVING MASTERY OF THEIR
TEACHING CONTENT
Effective teachers have a thorough knowledge of their
subject content and skills.
Through this, they inspire in their students a love of
learning. They also understand how students best
learn concepts, content and skills.
Effective teachers use their knowledge of learning
processes to determine which will be most effective to
help the particular students in their classes learn
successfully
9. PROVIDING A SAFE
ENVIRONMENT
Effective teachers provide a safe and orderly
environment, both physically and emotionally, so
students can achieve their potential.
They know students learn best if they are in a
classroom where they feel safe and confident to
attempt new tasks even if at first they are unsure about
how to tackle them.

RELATIONSHIPS

with their students – they get to know them and take a
