My Experience
In practice, a good lesson often starts with a clear objective, uses various teaching methods to engage different learning styles, and incorporates interactive elements to keep learners motivated. Balancing direct instruction with practice and feedback helps reinforce learning and allows for adjustments based on learners' needs. Incorporating real-life contexts and making lessons relevant to students' interests also enhances engagement and retention.
