Self-esteem is perceived as how a person feels about themselves and their self worth.Therefore, if a person has low self-esteem, then they are likely to lack confidence and feel negatively towards themselves. The saying that "we as people are our worst critics" is very evident in those with low self-esteem. Those with low self-esteem give themselves little to no room for error. They are quick to blame themselves for any negative wrongdoings

Some students may not want obvious special attention or treatment, therefore it is important that the teacher does not  shine a light on this student's exceptionality (especially with a student who is already trying to hide due to their low self-esteem).]]> 2019-09-17 23:28:48 UTC https://padlet.com/gdjeongg/4t9ztqevmy3f/wish/385641996 gdjeongg https://padlet.com/gdjeongg/4t9ztqevmy3f/wish/385727400 Students with low self-esteem should be given extra time to finish assignments. This will help reduce their fear of failure or disappointment that they could not finish the assigned work. Teachers should constantly tell the student that it is okay if assignments are not finished and that more time will be given.

This accommodation should help promote the students self-esteem by showing them that they are capable of success. Teachers should constantly provide positive reinforcements by praising the students every accomplishment.

This way, the student with low self-esteem does not feel like all the other students are judging or watching. Not only that, but being separate can also limit the student with low self-esteem  from comparing themselves to their peers.

These tasks/responsibilities should not be difficult, rather simple so that the students are guaranteed to succeed. This way a student with low self-esteem is given more opportunities to shine and succeed. Teachers should look out for the student's strengths and assets and bring those into the light.
