Being jovial and approachable, allowing students to learn in their own ways even if you don't think it will work, letting students do work for other classes in your class (depending on the assignment of course), and along those lines if you give students time to work on homework for your class (basically anything that isn't going to be discussed that day), allow them to do whatever work they want, don't force them to complete your homework. Also, stating lesson plans in advance can greatly help someone who may want to stay ahead in the class.
These are wonderful tips thank you! With the little time Ive had teaching in person classes, if students aren't busy and doing work for another class I usually don't mind, unless we're actively doing something. I've also been advocating for the abolishment of homework as it adds literally nothing to the class besides stress for the students and more work for me lol

Totally "not" unrelated to my profession, however I think your answers might prove valuable in shaping future approaches and lessons!
Thanks for your time ❤️

That's a wonderful point and thanks for taking the lead on those discussions! I feel that activities like Socratic Seminars can help with this, especially when the instructor states clearly that you can disagree with the points presented. Personally I wouldn't talk down on someone just expressing themselves (of course within reason lol)
