Effective teaching strategies: A brief overview

Abstract

This article discusses and presents a brief overview for effective teaching strategies within the school or university classroom. As teachers know, teaching is a challenging task. There are many people who may know their subjects very well. However, not everyone is able to convey what he or she knows to others. In fact, despite the fact teachers know a lot, many struggle to explain their knowledge to others. The main reason is that those specialists do not have knowledge, skills and competencies of sharing what they know with others. Thus, this paper attempts to address the mismatch between having knowledge about a topic and being able to share it with others by providing an overview of effective teaching strategies.
