The most engaging teachers have a little Hollywood in them. They are playful players, making learning engaging through storytelling, dramatic language, suspense and humor.

Teachers stand amidst a tough audience. Just picture yourself in front of 30 young people who believe strongly that life is elsewhere. A few of your students may choose to be in the classroom. But most would rather be anywhere but within the confines of the classroom walls. All of your students are accustomed to being entertained and so the seven hours in your presence may feel tiresome and dull.
