Format
My best practice will be to establish clear communication channels, set clear goals and expectations with my students.

Will be interactive and involve question and answer and feedback, and I will give homework and assignments, online quizzes and tests. Assignment will be submitted and graded. I will employ video conferencing software e.g. Zoom, Skype or Google meet. Messaging platforms like WhatsApp, Facebook messenger, and Email. My teaching methods will include Screen sharing and presentation software e.g. PowerPoint and Google Slides. I will use Interactive quizzes and pre-recorded video lessons. I will look out for challenges like technical issues and connectivity problem, limited nonverbal cues and feedback, distractions for instance, and ensure student engagement and motivation, and maintain teacher-student rapport. I will be patient with my student and continuously evaluate and improve my teaching methods.
