We make standards for ourselves.

And these standards are set to achieve the fulfillment of

what we are deprived of. Just like having a boyfriend or a girlfriend. You want tall, dark and
handsome or much have beautiful faces, or about the attitudes u wanted and the like.
Believe or not we set of it as goals we wanted to achieve.

Now, we are on college, students of course already set expectations as they step on to a
new life chapter. And these expectations we wanted may not meet exactly because of some
important considerations. As students we expect to have friendly professor, easy to be with
classmates, and the like. But these may not as we wanted some professor maybe friendly
but some are terrors to be. Some of ur c.m may have the attidude of isolating themselves, or
may have insecurities. For a teacher or a professor, they expect that we are much more
verstile, more equipt and too good that those of the college students they have because we
already experience k-12 which develop not only the skills, talents but of knowledge that we
must acquire already. That's why more professors are expecting that we are much more
holistic in terms of everything.

“What do you expect from an instructor who is giving 100% to the course?”

Here’s the list students came up the first time he tried this approach:

Give students their papers back in a timely way

Give students lots of criticism and feedback on their work
Have passion for the material
Listen and respond to student concerns
Care not only about academics but also about students as people
Realize that students have a life outside of class and not make unreasonable demands on
them
Not stick only to the class readings for discussion
Take all questions seriously and not fake answers
Provide inspiration to students so that they will want to change their minds

“What would you expect to see your peers doing if they were giving 100% to the course?”
And here’s that list:

Doing the readings

Listening to others and appreciating diverse opinions
Learning from each other’s ideas
Keeping things lighthearted
Not putting down others if you disagree
Showing up for every class and being on time
Showing respect for everyone’s ideas
Going beyond just academic conversation, bringing personal elements into the discussions
too
We need teacher on whom we can trust , communicate with & who teaches in a way we can
understand & also someone who has a lot of patience , good sense of humor.

I find this interesting because the issue of motivation becomes increasingly important as
students get older and sadly it is a key to learning that is often overlooked by secondary
teachers.
Your expectations can be simplified to an expectation of motivation and engagement in your
learning. Good teachers spend many hours trying to figure out how to motivate and engage
their students. As a teacher this can be a puzzling challenge. As a student you should
expect nothing less.

First, they want to learn something new and useful in each lesson. They do not expect the
teacher to know everything. They want the teacher to convey knowledge or skills relevant to
their lives. So it is vital to communicate a program or curriculum and tell students what they
will be able to do at the end of a course.
Second, they want the teacher to bring out the best in them, help them to find the courage to
speak out, give them the desire to do the required work, and show them that by completing
the program they will achieve goals that you specify. A teacher who can motivate the
students will find the later very cooperative.
Third, they want the teacher to respect them, i.e., understand their difficulties, their
hesitations, and their complexes. They don’t want to feel humiliated if they give the wrong
answer. They don’t want to be harassed by reprimands, such as “Don’t chat in the back,”
“Don’t be so lazy,” “Don’t text on your phone.” If your class is inspiring and the students all
have things to do, they won’t be using their cell phones. The students want the teacher to be
fair in the grading procedure and even in everyday activities—not have favorites, not let the
best students dominate the class, not label some learners from the very beginning as
"weak."

Respect better than authority

Reynaud
My experience has shown me that respect is far more important than authority. If you
respect your students, they will respect you—and you won’t have to raise your voice or
formulate threats to get their attention. Authority will come naturally from this mutual respect.

“it is not which school that matters, it is in you if you will study hard enough to reach your
goals in life.

Harder

Everyone says your college years are the best of your life. I have no doubt this is the truth,
but I would like to point out that it is is not going to be perfect from the minute you step foot
on campus.
your time on campus will be awesome and life-changing, but it's always best to be prepared

Teacher: more passionate,inspiring,committed

have a lot of fun socially, but I also want to succeed academically
*I think being on this campus is going to help me grow as a person.
* I think it's interesting to get to know people who grew up from a totally different
culture/background than myself
*Do not spend your first month holed up in your room moping about how much you miss
your old life. This gets you nowhere! Embrace the change and enjoy yourself!

Well, at GCT I hope that we will definitely not be standing still. We will be moving forward; we
will be making progress and we will be reaching our goals.
