Gone were the days when Traditional Education ruled the education system. In this techie millennia we are all living in, e-education is trail-blazing. E-education academies spring up like mushrooms, due to the demand of students who want to learn from home. With the success of e-education followed the high demand for online teachers, teachers who do not need to have an education degree.
Anyone who can teach competently can teach at the comfort of their own home. However, it is easy to be distracted and become unprofessional if your family member can walk here and there, talk to you, make so much noise, while you are conducting your lessons: Hence here are the basic reminder for all online teachers out there.
1. Find a peaceful, noise-free room in your house.
No one wants to study with a teacher you cannot hear. How can students learn if they barely hear the lesson? In addition, how can student learn if the teacher was distracted?
2. Avoid wearing sleeveless or revealing outfits
Teachers must not wear outfits straight from the runway of Versace. They must clothe themselves like real professional and be comfortable.
3. Make sure that your station is well-lit.
When the teacher’s background is well-lit, it would create a nice atmosphere.
A well-lit room will properly showcase your ‘kid-friendly station’ and encouraging feeling.

Sleeping was my main culprit in giving a negative evaluation for my conducted lessons - this was a total embarrassment on my part! The solution - I fixed my work station and invested on a CPU desk for me to STAND UP when I feel drowsy and the need arises for me to wake up.
In the day to day basis of having no class at all determine that a teacher will not be practice and the skills will not improve. I wish that all teachers will be given a equal student to teach. And having that i think most teachers will gain more good skills. Because more practice makes perfect.
I gear up by bringing a great attitude, wearing a variety of funny hats, and singing and using funny voices through out class.
The students really enjoy the class when a teacher is very fun and engaging. Especially when a teacher shows professionalism in every class she/he has.
