You were very personable with the students and established a
positive rapport with them throughout the lesson. It was
obvious that you enjoy the students and they reciprocated in
their actions and behaviors. You were encouraging and
supportive to their individual needs and redirected behaviors
appropriately as needed. Directions were clearly stated and
followed by the students. As we discussed, watch the amount
of wait time that you give students. It can slow down the pace
of the lesson. Again, providing certain materials increases
lesson efficiency.
