Addressing Students + SotW & Bonuses

ADDRESSING STUDENTS BY NAME TO BUILD RAPPORT

Here’s an easy way to make a good session great: When a student’s first name is provided in their username, aim to address the student by name at the beginning of, and throughout the session. For example, saying “Good job!” is encouraging, but saying “Good job, John!” makes your praise more likely to motivate the student and make them feel good about their work.

Teaching online may be less personal than working with students face-to-face, but we can still do little things to build rapport with the student. Not only will this increase engagement, but it will also keep your students coming back to work with you again!
