Step 1: Set a good example to your students.
Remember that you are the teacher.
It is important for you to be like a "superhero" figure in their eyes.
Remember that your students look up to you and will try to mimic your disposition.
If you are rude or inappropriate, they will have an inappropriate model for their behavior.
It is vital that students see you as a person with confidence, so that they follow your lead, and feel comfortable talking to you.
Students, of all ages, need someone they can lean on, look up to, and trust. -
Step 2: Have well-defined consequences.
Set specific consequences for breaking the rules.
Decide what those consequences are and then implement them consistently.
Your consequences should follow a procedure that starts with a non-verbal signal (such as just looking at the student), to a verbal signal (asking the student to please stop talking), to a verbal warning (if this continues there will be consequences), to the implementation of the consequence.
The consequences are up to you and depend on the program of the school.

They are warm, accessible, enthusiastic and caring.

Act as a mediator to make sure that the rules decided upon are appropriate.
Some may be, for instance, be quiet when the teacher is talking, respect each other, and finish the homework and classwork. , This will help children (5-11) think more creatively and they will come up with cool, new ideas. ,, Even if the problems are out of syllabus, try to help the student by using the Internet or library.
It would gain both of you some knowledge. , Clear the base points which seem to be unknown to your students. , Everyone needs some time to learn. ,,,, Don't forget to discuss that part as it is the most important one. -
