Students need to know with certainty what a teacher wants.

Communicate our expectations clearly and reinforce them through repeated reminders. This will create a certain form of routine in the classroom.

Provide feedbacks to students whenever you notice that they are not behaving appropriately. These feedbacks can be given through face-to-face conferencing.

Ensure that all students understand the importance of the teacher's messages and they must believe that they can achieve them because of the teacher's support.
