In the course of learning, a lot of students do brilliantly and others are not so brilliant. Most times students are not able to understand or take interest in what is being taught and that is why they fail to fare well when they are tested on their knowledge. However, little do we realise that at times, it may not be the fault in the understanding of students but the teaching techniques of the teachers that the students are not able to cope with the matter that is taught to them. Here is a list of ways in which the techniques of teaching and teachers themselves influence the performance of students. Authoritative teaching:
A lot of teachers may like to put up a strict demeanour and intimidate the students into learning. However, it should be understood that the ways that worked in the yesteryears do not work as well in the modern times. Students are turning rebellious and the best way to make them learn is by treating them like young adults. When they are shown logic and interest in learning they are bound to learn better. Creating an experience: Bookish learning is no longer interesting for students. This is one of the reasons why institutes are also taking the dynamic teaching approach and integrating technological systems in their teaching processes. The popularity of media and technology has created a generation of students that believe only in smart learning and the conventional style of learning no longer holds an appeal to them. Interactive techniques: Examinations and tests have always been an important part of student life but as the times have changed, the teachers have shifted their focus towards an overall development of students. This is seen in the way in which the popularity of debates, presentations and group discussions has increased. These techniques not only asses the students’ abilities but also help develop them. A unique teaching approach is what makes a smart student.

It as simple as - you love the teacher, you would love the subject, it is the teacher who can make learning exciting and transform children into charismatic results.

Organizing role plays and fun activities with the students is one way that can keep students active and engaged!
