How do I do a good job of teaching when I am a pretty quiet person?
- When planning and practicing your lectures, do not focus on your nervousness. Focus instead on what you need to do to help your students learn. You don't have to be hilarious or extroverted to be a good teacher, you just need to be committed to their learning, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. Take risks, you'll be glad you did!
