We have immense power to unleash—or diminish—a young person’s desire to learn,” says Carol Ann Tomlinson in her article, "One To Grow On /Releasing The Will To Learn.” Carol Ann Tomlinson is a successful author, a professor and also chairs the Educational Leadership, Foundation, and Policy at the Curry School of Education, University of Virginia. One of the most important aspects of motivating students, according to Tomlinson, is the student’s perception of whether they are not only seen as an individual in the classroom, but also seen as being able to succeed in the classroom.…

Those three goals will help me to create a learning environment where my students feel free to…

These are two aspects that resonate with me and I consider them to be significant factors in effective teaching practices. Creating a supportive learning environment is important for a teacher to consider because it sets the foundation of the classroom, both physically and emotionally, between all members of the classroom community. For a teacher to be effective positive relationships need to be developed, not just with the students, but also with the wider school community, such as parents so that…
