5. Praise and criticism
Be generous with praise. If you will give both praise and criticism, begin with praise. Maybe present a “criticism sandwich” (praise, then criticism, then praise). Give criticism at an appropriate time and place. Criticize or praise the behavior, not the person. Avoid sarcasm. Be specific in your criticisms, and provide suggestions for improvement.
Eye Contact – Don’t: Look out the window, at ceiling, at wall, at floor Look at one spot Forget to look at the back row Let notes get in the way of eye contact Look over the heads of the audience

① Eye Contact – Do
Make frequent eye contact with all students in the class.
Because research shows that there is a strong link between the amount of eye contact people receive and their degree of participation in group communication. We can also use eye contact as a correction technique. e.g. As the lesson starts, walk around the room looking to check whether the learners are ready -- books out, pens and paper handy, mobile phones off. If not, eye contact should suffice to rectify the situation.

6. Discipline
State clearly and explicitly to your students what your expectations are regarding their behavior in class, attendance, and any extra-class obligations. Try, initially, to resolve disciplinary matters outside of class time so that valuable class minutes aren’t spent focusing on one student. In resolving disciplinary problems, try to find the source of the problem rather than treating symptoms. If a reminder, reprimand, or other form of verbal disciplinary action is warranted, do your best to preserve the dignity of the student. If you cannot resolve a recurring disciplinary problem, then consult your institution’s counselor or administrator.
