As a high school teach for over five years, Sarah Eller of Raleigh has learned to control a classroom; and a big part of that is by asking students to do their part in practicing good classroom etiquette that enhances the environment for learning and helps serve the bigger purpose of helping everyone gain a valuable education. Below are some basic etiquette tips that are expected of all of Mrs. Eller’s students.

Respect the Teacher
Respecting the teacher is important because the teacher is ultimately the one who drives all the activities the class will participate in that day. Showing disrespect to the teacher will switch the teacher’s focus to getting you in control, while his or her primary duty I to be teaching the students.
Respect Your Classmates
Consider the wants and needs of your fellow classmates in deciding whether you should interrupt the class or not. More times than not the students are benefitting from whatever it is the teacher is doing, and if your issue has no relevance to the subject then it is even more important that you wait until after class to share it with your friends.
Respect Yourself
You, too need to benefit from the lessons that your teacher is providing you with; so it would be in your best interest as well to focus and pay attention.
