I believe that demonstrating and collaboration are the most effective teaching methods at the secondary school. The side benefit is the development of communication skills and teamwork. However, I have experience with all main teaching methods, including explanation, demonstration, learning by teaching, as well as some unorthodox methods, for example learning by doing. When I prepare my lesson plans, I always think carefully about each lesson and what would be the best and most engaging teaching methods to apply in it. I always try to mix it up, so the students experience the unknown, and the lessons are not routine, or boring.

Having experience in the special education sector, I definitely vouch for personalized education. In my opinion, individual approach to each student is the key, and it yields the best results.

It doesn’t matter what teaching methods I like. The only thing that matters is discovering the most effective one is for you, each lesson.

I have to say being humble and patient is the key to anyone who wants to learn, we all learn something new every day. We are all on this learning journey together.
