3 tips from a top teacher

• Bring joy to your classroom: Teaching is hard, being a student is hard; if we don't smile then the days can be extremely difficult.

• Be true to yourself: Kids are smart and see through the fake. Find a way to connect yourself to what you teach and the students.

• Understand the importance of parents: They want the same thing teachers do, the best for the kid. Let them know what is going on in your class and ideas to help at home.
