How can TESOL teachers enhance their confidence in the classroom (Part 1)

TESOL teachers face different situations in the classroom every day, which may even go beyond their comfort zone. TESOL teachers' commitment, confidence and interest create a more positive and pleasant classroom environment, which will also infect students and make them efficient and efficient learners. In addition, the self-confident character of TESOL teachers will not only continuously and positively affect students' performance, but also affect their attitude and even the development of social emotion.

Improving TESOL teachers' self-confidence is a gradual process, which means efficient preparation. TESOL teachers must know that they are entering and ready to deal with what may happen in any case. For example, TESOL teachers must think and work in advance, consider potential difficulties that may arise, and provide solutions when solving these difficulties. However, we should always remember that courses should follow the rhythm of students.

After effective preparation, TESOL teachers should consider their mastery of the course. However, when TESOL teachers are empty handed in a situation, they should not be afraid to admit their mistakes or admit that they don't know anything. Turn the problems you don't know into learning experience. In any way, students will respect TESOL teachers, tell the truth and adapt to their learning needs. It is also useful and important for TESOL teachers to listen to experienced teachers around them and pay attention to their views on how to deal with daily difficult situations in the classroom. Remember, everyone learns not only by himself, but also by the experience of others.

Confidence comes not only from preparation and mastery, but also from TESOL teachers' body language, projection, language and action. In addition, we should maintain a strict distance between teachers and students.
