There is nothing more frustrating for a teacher than classroom management.  Imagine stepping into a classroom and students are yelling at each other, throwing paper airplanes across the classroom and pushing and shoving each other, all while you are trying to teach. Now imagine, walking into that one master teacher's classroom.  She is teaching her lesson. Her students are attentive, respectful and none of them call out of turn.  She models appropriate and acceptable behavior, and her students willingly follow her lead.  What's the magic or her secret sauce? The answer: she is a classroom management master.  She has planned for and prepared for obstacles and challenges before they ever appear.  Each and everyday she walks the line as classroom Queen, coach, mentor and teacher.  This is her superpower and it too can be yours. In this course, Classroom Management Mastery: Overcoming Behavioral Obstacles, you will learn to become a classroom King/Queen.  You will learn how to overcome student behavioral issues such as students who call out, the use of non-verbal cues, dealing with students with attention deficits, excessive talking and creating a warm, welcoming classroom environment. Implement these strategies today and be well on your way to becoming a classroom master...

4. Classroom management for young learners

This course is taught by Gunita.  Many of our students have told us that she has a gift of teaching and basically 'spoon feeds' her students by 'coming down' to their level of expertise and making sure that nobody is left behind.  Each year we have more than two thousand young learners ages 3-7 that we provide language lessons for. Usually twice a week for 7-8 months in a row. Most of our teachers are students and as such many of them have not had much experience in dealing with classroom management. Especially when working with kids.  We have used this training to help our teachers and have received lots of positive remarks on how this has helped them to have better results at their lessons and to have more confidence AND assurance when dealing with the situations covered in this material.  Please, let us know your thoughts and potential situations and / or topics you would like us to cover in a follow up material. Enjoy the course and be assured - you can do THIS! Gunita...

5. Education 101: Hassle Free Classroom Management Strategies

Have you ever prepared an amazing lesson, spent hours making sure every detail was in place, but at the beginning of the lesson, one of your students completely wrecked it with one interruption that snowballed out of proportion?How would you react towards that student? How can we save our derailed class?The truth is that many of the methods used today in schools, are still better suited for teaching in the 19th century, when the teacher was second only to The Almighty, and students weren't meant to have views and opinions, they were supposed to listen to the knowledge spouting from the teacher and hope to maintain as much of it as possible. Do we expect students in the 21st century to act in the same way? Are teachers' jobs the same? Well most students don't - they expect their feelings to be taken into consideration, and teachers aren't google, they are live role models who help make sense out of the abundance of knowledge that exists in the world. So let's go back to our student at the very early stages of the interruption. You're teaching about civil rights and he's discussing with his neighbor about the football game last night. Calling out on him will call attention to him, derail your train of thought and distract the rest of the students, while also potentially embarrassing him or empowering behavior you'd like to discourage all with little chance of this student really reconnecting to the lesson. The ROI (return on investment) seems extremely small. Instead you might walk over to his seat and hand over a personal note, letting him know you believe in him, without stopping the lesson once. We call it a reconnecting note. The student's dignity was kept, the class wasn't interrupted, it didn't erupt into an aggressive match and what's even better is that you gave him an opportunity to rejoin the lesson without feeling like he lost. This is only one tip of many we'd be happy to share with you in our course Hassle free classroom management strategies, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Here at The Freedom to Teach we believe that the way to get a student to do anything in the 21st century is through inner motivation - not animal training - and that is why we created a series of courses that have helped tens of thousands of teachers create a systematic method with which you too could enter the classroom. In this course we will discuss three seemingly separate classroom related topics that are actually intrinsically related - discipline, the essence of learning and how to begin a lesson. The common thread between these three points is that all of them are essential to Hassle Free Classroom Management. Looking forward to seeing you at our first lesson! The Freedom to Teach...

6. Classroom Management - Fundamentals of Teaching & Education

You've created a dynamic lesson plan filled with creative activities, movement, and discussion. You've  utilized Bloom's Taxonomy to ensure the content your teaching is high-up on the pyramid. You're convinced the education your students are about to receive will be nothing short of miraculous. Yet, at the end of the day, you've discovered that things didn't go quite as you had envisioned. Students were off task, behavior issues were higher than anticipated, and you exhausted too much time on student corrections and too little time on teaching content. If you've been teaching long enough, you've probably survived this scenario once or twice. What went wrong? Why didn't the students respond to your teaching in the manner you anticipated?The greatest lesson planning coupled with incredible teaching doesn't always equate to effective education or student learning. From early childhood education through high school students need structure and stability that teachers provide through the consistent application of their classroom management plan. In this course, I'm going to teach the components of your classroom management plan and show you how to incorporate it with fidelity. It all begins with strategic planning. Teachers are leaders and successful leaders plan strategically. During this course, we're going to create your classroom management plan. We'll start by creating your core values, vision, mission statement, and goals. Next  we'll describe and create your classroom rules, procedures, consequences, and a rewards and motivation system. But we won't stop there, we'll discuss effective tier-1 strategies, attention signals, and as a bonus we'll review and I'll provide you with a copy of my Classroom Management Dashboard. Effective classroom management is the cornerstone to effective teaching. Even with the best of intentions, a child's education can be halted when structure and stability are missing in the classroom. Classroom Management - Fundamentals of Teaching & Education, from start to finish will not only teach you how to create an effective classroom management plan, but we will build your plan together to improve teaching in your classroom, minimize behavior issues, and accelerate the education of all of your students...
