| The number one strategy I use when teaching adults is to know and understand where the students are coming from, your most powerful teaching tool comes from developing a strong relationship with your students. Secondly, honoring and recognizing that everyone learns differently and should be assessed to reflect those differences. Thirdly, I may or may not be the expert on the subject I am leading a training on but there is always more for me to learn and students often make the best teachers. |
