Hello Suman. I have been teaching at the university level for several years and I concur with other posters that knowledge of the subject(s) you are teaching is primary. But, there is much more. (1) We all know that people learn using different learning skills and styles (i.e hearing it, reading it, writing it, applying it, hands-on doing it). Therefore, presenting materials in more than one format (i.e. being creative as mentioned above) and testing using a variety of techniques such as essays, multiple choice, and scenarios cover many learning and testing styles. I try to use an equal amount of each style so as to ensure that each student's strength is addressed. (2) Be genuinely enthusiastic and passionate about what you teach. Express it in your voice and your class lectures, projects etc. (3) Most important, and something that is often overlooked is this....have a sense of humor about yourself and your subject matter. Don't be afraid to laugh. When students find out you are a "real" person, and not a "plastic" stereotypical professor, it creates an incredible rapport. Students start to see you as a human being. They respond better in class, are more likely to ask questions and let down their guard when they know you are "real". One of the classes I teach is Death and Dying, and we do find humor in that subject, too. (4) Don't worry if you do not know the answer to every question that is asked. I look at teaching as a reciprocol relationship. No matter how much you know about your subject area, there will always be things you don't know. When I get one of those questions I just tell the class "I really don't know, but I will research it and tell you what I've found when we meet the next time." Students wlll not think you are a bad teacher as long as you are honest and follow up. Researching answers to students' questions has enriched my knowledge and is something I can add the next time I teach that class. (5) Keep up on the latest peer reviewed research and current events in your subject areas. There is nothing like real world events that brings subject matter to life and helps students relate to the material. (6) Finally, always have plan B and C ready if plan A does not work on any given day. Sometimes technology breaks down or some other unforseen event takes place. Have a back-up ready. There have been a couple of times that bulbs have burned out in the projector at the beginning of class when i was ready to show a video with a corresponding worksheet assignment. Instead, I did an impromptu (but available plan) to have students break into groups and do a small class project. Or times when I had laryngitis and showed a video that day instead of lecture. Always have an alternative for the "just in case" moments and you will never have to panic when things do not go as planned. Each semester I prepare two or three alternatives to have on hand if those situations arise.
I hope this will help you along with what other posters have suggested. The more you teach, the more spontaneous and relaxed you will become. It is always a work in progress, but also a fulfilling one, too. Good luck, Suman, and I am sure you will do well.
