“Teachers with a good sense of humor tend to have a better ability to change tempo when it’s needed. In other words, when plans go awry in the classroom or when it’s obvious the lesson is reaching different kids at different times, these teachers have the ability to change their presentation style or the pace of the instruction.”

“In terms of the workload, the best teachers for kids with slow processing speed tend to: Deemphasize busy work. Show a willingness to adjust homework assignments to “fit” with a student’s pace. Balance the common needs of all the students with the specific needs of individual students. Be excited by the use of technology in their classrooms because it makes it easier to adapt instruction. Be both organized and flexible.”
