Evidence of Success  I tailored my teaching methods to


address various learning styles and
abilities within the classroom

activities to suit the level the
student is at.

student feels supported and capable

of students at the back table
working together, while I helped
them.

Evidence of Success  I succeeded in establishing effective


classroom management practices
through a combination of strategies.
Firstly, I set clear expectations for
behavior, participation, and learning
outcomes, ensuring my students
understood what was required of
them. Building positive
relationships with my students was
key; I made an effort to create a
supportive and respectful
environment.
 I also paid attention to the
classroom environment, ensuring it
was well-organized and conducive
to learning. Being adaptable was
important too—I was open to trying
new approaches and adjusting my
methods based on the needs of my
students.
 Communication was at the forefront
of my approach—I maintained open
and transparent communication
channels with students and
colleagues. The physical setup of
the classroom was also important; I
organized the space to encourage
focus and collaboration.
