Trust and care are the ingredients to a good teacher 

Pastoral care allows for students to flourish, may strengthen the curriculum and may promote robust cultural relationships, however, the school climate/ environment may either heighten or erode the mental well-being of students and teachers and thus nurturing the well-being of students is of great importance.

Implementing pastoral care and well-being into the classroom is easy and can be done via the teacher being available and accessible, creating a safe environment where students can voice their concerns and worries, promote empathy and understanding and pro social bonding through remembering events such as birthdays. Caring for the students and being aware of their well-being is a necessity and can be the reason as to the increase in their academics.

To teach effectively one needs to take into account several components such as behaviour, social and academics.  Teachers need to allow for an environment where students can actively participate and receive feedback. Teachers should orientate the classroom that will not only suit their style of teaching but will also facilitate learning and active engagement. The teachers cannot separate the home and the school and thus should establish positive communication between the home and schools. This can be done through making the parents aware when the students do well academically and behaviorally .Use different teaching strategies that will align with how the different students learn. One should understand the resources that are available and use them in a way that will enhance learning and not distract the learners from learning.

There will be Limitations when philosophy, teaching practices and teaching theories cannot be reconciled with the curriculum as these decisions are made at school administrative level.

In the article by wills I love how the teacher took a problem and created an exciting and interesting solution to the problem. This solution not only got the students highly curious but taught them several skills such as co-operation. We so often forget to ask how students felt about something, as it takes time, but it helped her gain insight into how they were feeling but they also felt pleased and happy that their voices had been heard, the students just had a much greater respect for the teacher. Through this task they every day came up with new ideas as to what was on the table that they couldn’t drop, these ideas ranged from buckets of acid to towers of cupcakes. Learners were excited every day to perform this task of rearranging the desk as the teacher made it creative and fun, something they could get involved with and let their minds run wild for a few minutes

She trusted her students with preforming the task of rearranging the desks and doing so quietly. The students did so when she made it create and fun but when it was a chore that they had to do they were not interested and so they dragged the desks and did a half job, which Is natural, most of us do a half job or do it with such laziness when we are not interested.
