\n1.
\nBe known to live honestly, i.e.: \u201cWalk\/Work your talk!\u201d with integrity -- and in doing that, earn the right to have responsibility for others' success. True authority is born from respect for the purpose, good character and trustworthiness of the person who leads them to opportunity for success.
\n2.
\nBe enthusiastic about your and the students' work (praise the work not the student) or the cause and also about your role as leader. People will respond more openly to a person of passion and dedication -- but by not complaining against the student and never demeaning the work... Leaders need to be able to be a "source of inspiration", and be a motivator getting the work into gear towards the required action or cause. It is impossible to make a student do anything -- but inspire and coach the techniques: "Do it this way!" -- and "Right. That's it!"
\n3.
\nRoll up your sleeves and get dirty\/do not sit, or yawn and look bored. Although the responsibilities and roles of a leader and follower are different, the leader needs to be seen to be part of the team working towards the goal. This kind of leader will not be afraid to work.
\n4.
\nBe orderly and purposeful in situations of uncertainty by portraying a confident and positive demeanor. People look to the leader during times of uncertainty and unfamiliarity to find reassurance and security.
\n5.
\nTolerate ambiguity (wait and see) and remain calm, proactively composed and steadfast to the main purpose. Storms, emotions, and crises come and go and a good leader takes these as part of the journey and keeps a cool head. In turn, students learn to follow suit.
\n6.
\nFocus on the whole but see its parts to think analytically and break it down into sub parts for closer inspection. So then, the goal is in view \u2013 a good leader views the situation as a whole, and also in part:
\n\u2022 Always be breaking the course down into manageable steps and making progresstowards each part and the finish line. The course changes each day. It is not one race, but many sprints.
\n7.
\nRaise the bar. A good leader is committed to excellence. Second best does not lead to the best success. The good leader not only maintains high standards, but is proactive to advance the goal forward in order to achieve excellence in all areas.

\nToday we have discussed to how to learn more effectively at the stage of ESL. We anticipate more encouragement both from instructor and learners. At the same time, more topics involved with academic levels and presentations used more complicated computer software( such as power point, etc) .
