How Teachers Influence Pupil Learning And Success

The small scale investigation I carried out in the school I work at answers the research question: ‘

A teacher should keep the learners’ need at the forefront when developing a teaching program more often a teacher tend to use a limited range of strategies that sit naturally with them regardless of students who prefer other ways to learning explained Brady(2006, p. 11). All too often it’s easy for a teacher to just follow the same lesson every semester applying the same strategy for every learner. We all learn differently and what works for one does not necessary work for the other, teachers need to not just be aware of the different learning styles but also need to develop the skills to observe and pick up on what learning style a student is, the correct type of resources to be developed and the approach required to take the student on a learning journey. This will allow the implementation of a learner centred teacher program.

How teaching and learning is influenced by the awareness of the learning style, preference and strategies

I think one of the most important things to remember is that one form of teaching or one set of strategies will not work the same on every one of your students. I

The determination of a certain learning style can be attributed to several factors. According to Rita Dunn and Shirley A. Griggs’ book entitled Learning Styles: Quiet Revolution in American Secondary Schools, a learning style can be described as, “a biologically and developmentally imposed set of characteristics that make the same teaching method wonderful for some and terrible for others (Dunn, 1988, p.3).” Learning styles are attributed to what senses people employ to remember information more efficiently. For example, some people use hearing, others use sight, and others may use touch. A person’s particular style of learning can also come from motivation, which can factor into individual students’ success in school.

Nevertheless, greater awareness of learning preferences and styles helps teachers to be more flexible in their teaching and to utilise a wider range of classroom methodologies. The aim is not to match teaching style to learner preferences, but to help young people build their skills and capacities to learn well in both preferred and less preferred modes of learning.

The boundary of a teacher’s role is effective learning, it is also important for teachers to be aware of different aspects of the learners’ needs that are beyond a

Learning for students can be different and can happen at different levels. It is imperative to know

Learning is the core of the education system and one of the most important activities needed for a child’s development. Philosophers and psychologists such as B.F Skinner (1948) have been working for many years trying to understand how learning occurs and how teaching styles can have an effect on said learning. There are many different learning theories which provide an understanding on how students absorb, process and retain information during learning. Due to the observational and experimental nature, scientific theories are considered more reliable than theories created using opinion or personal experience (Shuell, 2009).

Teacher quality and education standards are an issue that is under constant scrutiny in Australia, and in many countries around the world. There are many factors that contribute to a good quality educational system. Curriculum, government funding, school administration, and pressures of public opinion to name a few. Teachers themselves however, are the front line when it comes to education. The teachers in the classroom are ultimately the people whose job it is to ensure that students actually gain the

Educating is as intricate as the learning procedure is for each student. Educating is not just lecturing in front of the class and later on give them tests to assess their knowledge. Being a teacher your style must adapt constantly for the diversity of the children in our classroom as well as their learning styles. To be viable in my work, planning and managing your time is crucial in setting up appropriate lesson plans for the children. I trust that with information I have accumulated throughout the years on the qualities of an effective teacher, I will have the capacity to arrange strategies and imaginatively design strategies for difficulties and issues that I will experience in the classroom environment. The key to success would be to always keep in mind the child 's needs and to understand how society is evolving.

Consider a student running so swiftly from boarding house to school for his/her class. And in the time that he/she is right there in front of the door, the teacher welcome him with an eyes wide open and uttered,

These days, there are many students travel to other countries to study and gain more experiences. They are willing to study abroad because in these globalization era, opportunity to get better education are offered and might support their career in the future. As a result, there are many students from Asia travel to other country such as New Zealand, Australia, and America to pursue their dream. Moreover, teacher is part of education that cannot be separated with students’ life. They have an important role in molding the students before they graduating. However, every single student has their own different learning style in the ways they acquire, retain, and process the information (Kansas State University, 2001). Hence, most of the students will focused, active, engage, and motivated with their class when the teachers can deliver an interesting materials that matched with the students learning style. And that is the reason why teachers have a crucial role in students learning process. Yet, mismatches between teachers teaching styles and students learning style still happen in the education institutions around the world. As some teachers still believe that the best way to educate their pupils is by taking on the role of one way teaching styles, which happening in the most of country in Asia (Selvarajah, 2006). One way teaching style is happened because the teacher believe that once they delivered class materials, the students must understand

Throughout the history of American education there have been many innovational techniques implemented into schools for teachers to convey concepts that are better retained and learned by students. These innovations include classroom management techniques as well as varying teaching methods focusing on the different learning styles of each student. There are several common teaching practices that are used in modern schools in order to cater to individual student’s learning style that have offered students with an opportunity for optimal learning. Studies have shown that certain methods of teaching are better than others and offer insight as to which methods should be considered in order to give students the best possible opportunity to learn the most they can within the classroom. There is no one teaching style that presents information tactfully for each individual student’s learning style, but there are things that can be done in order to cater to the needs of more students.

‘Pedagogy’ is the term which is used to describe different practices of teaching and learning. Teaching Australia (2008) defined pedagogy as ‘the art and science of educating children, the strategies for using teacher professional knowledge, skills and abilities in order to foster good learning outcomes’ (p.3). Teaching and learning is a two-way process. Teachers choose the effective instruction modes to disseminate knowledge. Students adapt to different learning styles and use different learning strategies to help them process the information. When teachers receive evaluations and feedbacks from students, they revise, reconstruct and re-enact their teaching mode in order to meet students’ needs. Teaching refers to different teaching approaches such as lecturing, practice drills, directed questioning, discussion, constructivism and problem solving. Marsh, Clarke and Pittaway (2015) mentioned that effective teachers are capable to use a wide range of instructional modes in teaching that reflects their flexibility in their teaching. Learning refers to the strategies that children used to assist their study and digest the new knowledge. Strategies to help learning are chunking, story-grammar training, self-questioning, summarization, mnemonic images and concept mapping. These methods are useful for the process of retention, which means the ways by which knowledge is retained in our memory for later retrieval (Mclnerney, 2015a).
