The two videos show the same classroom, same students, and the same lesson carried out by the same teacher acting two different personalities. 1rst personality, where we see a grumpy, unfriendly teacher who doesn't care about his students learning, While in the 2nd we see a devoted friendly humble teacher genuinely interested in the students learning.These two videos highlight the importance of the teacher’s attitude and personality in delivering messages, building good rapport with students, and stimulating students in order to get the best out of them. We can clearly see here the importance of the classroom management, and how closely it is linked to the students motivation. - The importance of the non verbal communication: the smile, the eye contact, the gestures, the mimes. For instance, a simple smile allows you to make an instant positive and personal connection with each student.-The importance of the voice its clarity, complexity, Speed, and the language level used.-The importance of calling students by their names in order to build good rapport and giving individual attention to every student. -The importance of grouping in order to allow sufficient opportunity for student talking time and active participation.- The importance of teaching with enthusiasm and passion: by actively involving students in the learning process, and praising students’ comments, questions and good work.-The importance of the teacher standing positing and movements during each stage of the lesson.-The importance of giving clear instructions by using simple language appropriate to students level, and by using visual clues, giving them demonstrations and Eliciting the right answers, to make sure they understand Before giving them out the materials. -The importance of monitoring the students and providing feed-back, giving them the chance to self correct, or to correct each others.- The importance of building good rapport between teacher/students and students/students for it plays a major role in determining the success of the lesson.Teaching does not comprise just the classrooms, board markers and worksheets.... The success of a teacher depends mainly on how he/she manages the students and how he/she improves their motivation, receptivity and enjoyment of the lesson. A teacher must be flexible and change his/her role according to the activity and situation without being dominant or leaving the students uncertain.
