8. Organisation - If you’re a schoolteacher, organisation skills will help you to fit marking and lesson planning around your school hours, and file and reuse the resources you develop.
How to develop it:
Practise organisation while you study. If a friend asked to borrow your lecture notes, would you know where to find them straight away? If not, sit down and work out a system.
Keep your calendar up-to-date and plan out how you’ll fit your to-do list items into each day. (Don’t have a to-do list? That’s another thing to work on.)
And finally…
Some teachers are loud and energetic, others quiet and dedicated, and all can make a difference in their own way. You don’t have to fit the mould perfectly to be a great teacher.
To determine whether teachers, on average, improve in their effectiveness as they gain experience in the teaching profession, this brief summarizes the key findings from a critical review of the relevant research. A renewed look at this research is warranted due to advances in research methods and data systems that match student data with individual teachers, which have allowed researchers to more accurately answer this question.
In analyzing the effect of teaching experience on student outcomes was found that:
Teaching experience is positively associated with student achievement gains throughout a teacher’s career.
As teachers gain experience, their students are more likely to do better on other measures of success beyond test scores, such as school attendance.
Teachers make greater gains in their effectiveness when they teach in a supportive and collegial working environment, or accumulate experience in the same grade level, subject, or district.
More experienced teachers confer benefits to their colleagues, their students, and to the school as a whole.
These conclusions suggest that policymakers should support policies and investments that:
a) advance the ongoing development and professional growth of an experienced teaching workforce,
b) increase the retention of experienced and effective teachers.
