-Plan for the session as much as possible as far as making sure everything you have planned will be able to be covered within the session; however, if time is running short, don't feel the need to rush--you can just make up whatever you didn't get to the best you can next session in possibly a more time efficient manner. So i guess it's Quality, not Quantity.
-Always have more planned than you expect to get to so that the students aren't left with unauthorized excess free time to surf the web if they finish early with certain activities.
-Circle discussions/ feedback works very well for checking progress and getting & maintaining momentum.
-"So I guess as an instructor, as much as you would like to, you can't awasy get caught up in being on the students' good side and sometimes it is just really necessary that you be a little more assertive than you regularly are in order to get things done; however, I still believe that a good balance between the two will always keep things going pretty smoothly and not bring up too much tension or anything like that."
-Using downloaded fonts for session powerpoints aren't really the best idea. Lots of problems came up whenever I tried it.
-Take more STT, STS, and/or PTE classes
