Teaching is an Art. But you can surely improve your teaching by putting little more effort and dedication. Main requirement of teaching is the thorough knowledge of the subject by good preparation. If you are confident on your subject, you will have control over the class. You should also have good communication skill to express what you know. You should have a pleasing nature for the stuents to feel free. You should never go to the class in a hurry. Take a few minutes rest, make a planning of the class and handle the class with confidence.
Make the class interesting by live examples and some jokes. Be patient and allow the students to ask questions. If you are not sure about the answer don't bluff and tell them that it will be cleared in next week. Refer books and consult with colleagues and clear the doubt of the students in the next class. Do not be very strict nor be very lenient and take a middle path.
You can thus become a good teacher loved and respected by students. Students will never forget their good teachers and respect you even years after the course. Good luck
