Today's session was about Classroom management. Every teacher has a unique classroom management skill.The subskills of classroom management were also discussed. 

•The important concept we should kept in mind is that "Before you teach your student, you should learn your student", hence creating a rapport with students is essential in classroom management. 

•Then sir mentioned about How teachers should be a facilitator  rather than a provider. 

•Maintaining a proper time schedule is an yet another subskill of classroom management.

•Bridging of relationship with students however is the prime step in this subskill.
