Helping Our Shy Students
20/09/2023 Duración: 12minShyness is often misunderstood because it is not one emotion, but a mixture of fear, tension, apprehension, or embarrassment. Shy children seem to lack confidence and are self-conscious especially in new surroundings or when they are the center of attention. Changes in the environment and school pressures are also factors that affect a child’s demeanor. It is noteworthy that shyness is not necessarily a negative attribute. Many shy children exhibit an ability to please and think for themselves. Being reserved can also be a worthy personality trait. It is when shyness is severe that educators need to be concerned. Join Bryan as he and education writer Leah Davies (@Kellybearbooks) converse about students who are quiet thinkers and observers. She also manages http://www.kellybear.com What strategies help you in reaching your quiet and shy students? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mr-bryans-classroom/message

The Debt Free Teacher
