Teaching Tip #26

Keep Your Eye on Time

Glance at the clock every so often, but not as if you're waiting for the period to end. You don't want the bell to ring mid-example or to run out of time with the notes. You want some sort of closure (which I'm not the greatest at, but working very hard on incorporating more often), and you don't want to be shouting the HW over the bell. Such inconsistencies will make the students AND you feel rushed.  It also reflects poorly on your style, and shows that you're trying to force too much into one class.
