REACTION PAPER

Teacher attitudes affect student’s performance in all areas, when a teacher come to the classroom with an angry or irritated mood; students automatically perceive it, in a manner the teacher talks, behaves, explains the subject and especially in how the professor is expressing to her/his students.
Sometimes the manner how to ask for home works, answers, questions, participation make students to feel fear to talk or express something useful and meaningful in their learning process, in order words any activity would be excellent if the students do not feel the connection with the teacher. It can create frustration or less attention for the subject.
On the other hand, some students believe that it does not matter what their teachers do. It won’t make them mad because they know that the teachers just want to help them.
Teachers and students should trust each other. Students have to realize that teachers are here because they love teaching. Just as well, teachers need to know that students love learning and that’s why they are here for. But if the teacher does not feel it, students will get down the performance, but the best way to avoid it is creating a good communication.
For creating exciting classes is important to innovate, but it doesn’t mean to use technology which is very useful by the way, but it is not the only tool to employ for having good classes. The authentic material gives students curiosity to learn and be interest for any topic; because students feel the necessity to participate in classes; with the fun activities teacher uses and the attractive material.
