Who Is A Teacher?
The classic model of Western education is a
teacher. The teacher imparts knowledge and
learning through lectures and class discussions,
and eventually tests the students on what they
have learned. The best teachers usually bring
their passion for learning and teaching into the
classroom with them.

Who Is A Teacher..
Inspire class participants to want to learn about
the subject at hand. Open up a conversation
that includes themselves, and invites the
students to participate. The classroom
transforms into a place where learning from each
other becomes the norm.

How a Teacher Transforms Into A Facilitator?
The teacher thus becomes a facilitator of
learning. At the beginning of any classroom or
training session, ask questions to find out about
the people in the class their backgrounds, level
of knowledge, and expectations. Introduce new
information slowly students can be invited to
choose the order in which the material is
introduced and discussed.

How a Teacher Transforms Into A Facilitator..
Ask the students to think about ways that the
subject matter can be applied to their current
lives. This can promote conversation and keep
everyone engaged. Let them share their
experiences so that they can learn from each
other.
