- Do not go to class repared. Student automatically identify teachers who are not sure what to do in class.
- Do not be inconsistent. If the teacher allows students to come to class late without taking action one week students cannot be reproached for doing the same thing the week after.
- Do not issue threats. Teacher who threaten student with terrible punishments and then do not carry them out are doing both the class and themselves a disservice.
- Do not raise your voice. One of the great mistakes of many teachers is to try and establish control by raising their voices and shouting.
- Do not give boring classes. Perhaps the single greatest caause of indiscipline is boredom. http://kursusprivatferry.blogspot.com
- Do not unfair. Teachers cannot allow themselves to be unfair, either to the class as a whole or to be individuals.
- Do not have a negative attitude to learning. A teacher who does not really care and who is insensitive to the students reactions to what is happening in the classroom will lose the respect of the students - the first step to problems of disruptive behavior.
- Do not break the code. If part of the code is that the students should arrive on time, then the teacher must, too. http://kursusprivatferry.blogspot.com
