In what ways do you make your students feel valued?
-
I always remind them they are special and have a purpose because God created them. I tell them that their struggles are only going to make them stronger. I tell them everyday that I love them and am so glad I get to be their teacher.
-
Students feel valued when they know teachers truly care and love them.
-
Students feel valued when they are considered image-bearers of God, so we need to treat them as such. Their thoughts and opinions matter, plus their whole being is considered valuable.
-
Helping them discover their strengths and talents and positive encouragement.
-
I try to take time to get to know them and ask them questions. When they are not doing well I try to encourage them. I think the biggest thing is just being present on a regular basis for them.
