Set Goals.
Setting goals is one of the first things you should do when starting out with teaching. You need to set goals so that you know where you want to go. If you don’t set goals, then you won’t know how to reach them.

Plan Ahead.
It’s also important to plan ahead. This means planning lessons, assignments, and projects before you start teaching. Planning ahead will help you stay organized and keep track of everything you need to do.

Prioritize.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the number of things you need to do each day, prioritize them. Start with the most important tasks first. Then, organize your schedule so that you can complete those tasks efficiently. Finally, make sure you have enough time to accomplish everything you need to do each week.

Create a Schedule.
You should also set aside time daily to work on your lesson plans. This will help you stay organized and focused throughout the school year. It will also allow you to review your lessons before class starts.
