Teaching is a two-way process

The process of learning is doomed to failure unless: the student can question the teacher to resolve ambiguities or clarify difficulties the teacher is given some feedback about the students understanding

If teaching is one-way process, we will only learn properly from video and functions open and teachers do not become a necessity again. Students communicate directly with teachers and teachers check students' work as well as some feedback from teachers. This is because of the feedback teachers can understand and know there is learning going on there. Communication and learning requires that the following chain works perfectly: what I mean understand what I say what they hear what they

Rather like a game of Chinese whispers, the message does not arrive in the chain. The message sent and message received that is not what is taught is not what they have learned. That's why feedback is so important. Learning is a mental process that is hidden and teachers do not have direct control. Students develop a personal understanding based on the materials and the ability to be taken. During the process of teaching and learning, students correct misconceptions and increase understanding and to achieve an approximation to the ideal outcome. This process is not enough teachers to correct students' work, but students also need to be involved in correcting their own understanding. Learning is also a process of solving their own problems and the problem of students to the skills and knowledge to solve the problem.

Communication blocks
To achieve two-way communication is not easy. In practice, a number of barriers present themselves, preventing or inhibiting effective

communication. The barriers to learning will depend on the teaching situation, a situation commonly experienced is shown below.

Level of work is inappropriate


Level of work should be appropriate to each student. This is because when a given level questions beyond the ability of students in teaching and learning processes, it cannot be implemented. It is also important in motivating students to feel that every student has achieved something of

value and recognition of learning outcomes they have achieved. This can be overcome by asking friends experienced teachers and see how the teachers were in the course of teaching and learning process.

Jargon
Teachers have difficulty using any term or keyword of unexplained meaning. Therefore, teachers should be aware of the special vocabulary used every day in order to avoid confusion in the students. Preferably before the start of teaching of the language and terminology confusion, teachers need to test the students' understanding in advance to ensure that students who want to be taught to understand the term.

Vocabulary and other use of language.


Traditionally, teachers have a broader treasury and most of their students. Sometimes teachers tend to use more complex grammar of the learner. This makes it difficult for students to understand and interact actively in the process of teaching and learning. Teachers need to make sure to use simple language and more formal teaching conveys more effectively. Are you worried about your accent? This takes a little time for students to understand and try to speak clearly and slowly to provide opportunities for students to understand what was presented.

Environmental factors

Does teaching situation disturbing or noisy? is it the last lesson on a Friday afternoon? In this situation, teachers need to consider factors like your plan for the preparation and teaching. Students in a tired, hungry or thirsty would complicate the learning process implemented.

Fear of failure and low student expectations


Imagine you are: a school student who hates math, starting with a new math teacher women returning to education after 17 years of raising children adults who hate school, undergo retraining to update computer skills. a 50-year-old manager in the retail division, sent to a management class by his new manager How do you feel about your first class? Do not have the success and experience in mathematics, pupils will expected to failure and so are his new teacher also. Women are back in the world of education will be scared and have forgotten how to learn. Adults who hate school will not enjoy his new class. Managers will feel resentful and do not expect to learn anything new. Typically, many students make their lessons to be counterproductive and as a result they have a negative approach and afraid to go to their classes. Students may also lack motivation. Therefore, teachers need to take the first step to understand the students first? What are their motives to attend school? What concern by them? Can be known to them by

breaking their problem in group or personal (alone with alone) and should be done privately if necessary. Ask them questions about their motives, fears and worries. Only by knowing their problems you can acted reasonably in solution and can also develop good relationships and motivate them.

'Unapproachable' Teacher.
We have seen in this chapter that "students ask the question" is part of the learning process. But the students, especially the shy, they do not ask questions to the teachers who are too formal and fierce. How does a teacher's easy to be approached? This is not just about having a personality and dedication but there are techniques and skills essential to help teachers easily to be approached by the student. During the beginning of the new class, we have to try to find out students' attitudes and expectations of the class they occupied. What they want and what they fear. This helps teachers to plan the course and students interested in learning plan will be made by the teacher.

Other challenges: mixed-ability differentiation and dyslexia


Students may include such capability either incapable of learning, motivation, maturity, and in some other respects. You have to teach to how to put the difference between them and focus on their greater. In the same time you may also encounter students with learning difficulties and complexities such as dyslexia.
