Today's Tip: Provide Meaningful and Specific Praise Print this page Save this page
Provide meaningful and specific praise to your students to promote positive self-esteem, self-respect, and a sense of importance. These characteristics motivate people to set and achieve purposeful goals. A poignant note on a graded paper, a positive comment while greeting students at the door, a note mailed to the student's residence – regardless of the form, specifically worded praise will motivate students to achieve more.
