Use positive comments about students' abilities rather than negative comments
about their performance.
Be aware of and note improvement, not just perfection.
Help students learn to work through their own problems and evaluate their own work.
Be optimistic, positive, and cheerful.
Demonstrate good, active listening when students are speaking (focus your attention on the student, nod, and so on).
Provide several alternative routes to task completion and allow students some degree of choice.
