SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES
1. Most times when a subject appears to be
too concentrated, it takes a longer time for a teacher to be able to drive home

notes using their own words, what is taught sticks because it is from their
understanding of the subject. This doesn’t mean however that a teacher should
not prepare his or her own notes.

REINFORCING EFFORT AND PROVIDING RECOGNITION
Every student needs to be motivated to
work, and as result not just the students that do well should be appreciated,
but even the ones that are believed to be backward. Introducing a kind of
incentive for good performance, as well as driving other students by awarding
them gifts, even when academically, they may not deserve it, would go a great
length to helping a teacher achieve a positive result with his work.
