Teaching is CRAZY

R: Real Examples that relate to your students' lives
A: Actual Experiences, share your or other's experiences relating to your topic to help students understand the topic better.

Microsoft Surface: We travel with a Microsoft Surface everywhere we go. I edit my videos on it & use it to backup my pictures and vides while we travel. It’s light and the best travel laptop on the market in my opinion.

Lights: Mount Dog 18’ Ring Light Kit. It will light up your filming space so your videos will look clearer and film better. We started using it and it makes all the difference.

Sony Alpha Camera: We use Sony Alpha series cameras to film our videos. They are compact so you don’t look like a super tourist when you take great pictures and videos while you film on location.

Manfrotto Tripod: We use Manfrotto Tripods. They are compact, travel well, and honestly I would not use another tripod for my nice cameras.

Prof. Wolters was my marketing professor! You rock!
Thank you Stephany!
Thank you Mark: As a teacher of 40 years I agree with you.
I have learned that the teacher learns as much as the student.
It is so true.
When alumni get together we invariably discuss our favorite professors and two always pop up. It was obvious that both knew their subject matter inside out but they had very different teaching styles. Prof. A was super engaging, enthusiastic and charming. Prof. B was somewhat unapproachable and intimidating. B spent most of his time lecturing; however, he did ask for participation regularly to take a pulse. To be clear, B didn't let formative assessment dictate his schedule but he certainly knew when to slow down a tiny bit. I may not have loved Prof. B but I certainly appreciated him. Another fun video, Mark.
Thanks Tosh. I've had some similar experiences.
Just to be clear, I definitely prefer professors like *_you_* and Prof. A every time. Prof. B was just someone who may not have expressly portrayed caring and zeal but it was clear he was determined for all of his students to succeed. Scary but earned all of our respect for sure.
Oh I got you Tosh. No worries :)
Thank you so much. After 39 years in private Podiatric Medicine practice and having a gap year I’ve been invited to lecture 3rd and 4th year students at QUT. I want to inspire them and your CRAZY message is gold. Thank you so much.
Holy crap Wolters world I started watching you 3 years ago because I wanted to learn German. I remember I wanted to psych myself up so I typed in "Germany" on RUclips, and your Berlin video popped up. It worked. Now I just spent the past 3 months in Germany and Austria as a bartender and I'm back in the States to finish my bachelor's and get an Med to become a teacher and your videos are AGAIN the first thing that pops up. I feel like my life has just come full circle. Thank you friend. You've had a great, and rather odd, amount of influence on my life.
I am glad I could be a part of your journey
I' starting as a PT Professor, and your video inspired me to care more about the students and feeling confident about creating a welcoming environment for them. Keep the good work!
Long time follower of Wolters World, subscribed to this channel now and turned on notifications. Thanks for all you guys do!
Thanks O.G. the idea for the fall is to have my traditional marketing class videos to come out each week like my lectures so people could learn an entire marketing class via RUclips just watching a few videos a week. Will throw in some RUclips tips as well as teaching tips as well. It's still pretty wide open on this channel. So thanks for joining up
Fabulous! Thank you again for sharing.
Hello! I’m a senior in high school right now doing an intro to education course at a college. I have a presentation soon on the 12 virtues of being a good teacher, my word/virtue being Zeal, which is how I found this video! I just wanted to say that I will be using this video not just because you talk about zeal, but you yourself express it. Though I am not yet a professor/teacher yet, this video was honestly inspirational, which is why I subscribed!! :)
Thanks Cassie! That's really nice of you. Thank you.
I'm not a teacher, actually I'm a student, but with this video you really inspire me!! Thanks you!!
That is really nice to hear. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this! I'm an aspiring history professor and I want to be one of those memorable professors who makes a difference! I want my future students to spread the word of how good I am to the lower classmen. I want them to say "Dr. White is a phenomenal professor! Do whatever it takes to get in her class!" I want to inspire them! Thank you for these amazing tips! When I become a professor I will definitely implement these tips!
I only could say thank you so much professor Wolters!!!
Professor, you are da man. You are teaching by example and real life experiences. Lots of folks out there have fancy titles have no real life experience. I am not being rude or putting anyone down. I am saying it as it is. Whatever you do, i dont have if you have 10 PHDs or JDs or other related degrees, if you dont have job experience & life experience, dont even bother. Learning and knowing are important and they do go together well, my 2 cent opinion.
I understand and thank you
Thank You Sir. Iam aspiring to be an Accounting Professor. Will definitely remember these....
I'm a private tutor trying to get better at teaching and I absolutely loved this video. Even though I teach math this video is still incredibly useful. Absolutely fantastic video with great information, you're the man.
thank you
From some who’s been in both a teaching and learning position, I find it extremely effective to be understanding of your student’s or trainees situation. Use your classroom or workspace for both learning and work opportunities. Realizing these people have other classes or lives outside your classroom makes huge difference for you growing relationships with your students which can boost morale and motivate them. Another is a method I use to teach, is first demonstrate how to do it, then walk them through it, then let work on it with help when needed, then I finally leave them to work on it without me looking over their shoulder. I find this gives people the opportunity to see it work in real time, then try with supervision, then try it on their own with the comfort of a safety net, then learn to do it without feeling like they are being watched. Remember making people feel comfortable and that you care for their development will positively affect their performance in class or at work. Which for us benefits in our performance reviews. Being that professor or work trainer that’s hard nosed and super harsh with their class work will only decrease the quality of your relationships with your student and will carry a negative stigma towards your name in school and the workforce. Can’t tell you how many times people tell me about a teacher who they and every other student hated in college or the workplace.
it is like online reviews. Happy and satisfied customers never write or talk about the good ones (maybe once in awhile if someone specifically asks), but the upset ones will share their experience everywhere and often :)
Wow I go to a small college, never seen a classroom like that
That is my spring classroom. 8am fun twice a week with 500-600 awesome students.
Actually I thought it movie theatre
Thank you so much for creating this! This is so inspirational and I will remember this when I wrap up this semester. Your charisma is infectious! Keep up the great work, my family enjoys your content!
Thank you Franklyn. I really love teaching and hope this can help out a few educators along the way.
Thank you! You are wonderful.
Well said!!
Excellent video! I really admire your passion for teaching. I’m looking to teach at the community college level, and have no classroom teaching experience. All my experience has been through actual work out in the field and years of training others. I now recognize this as an asset . Thank you 👍🏼
Read world experience is definitely an assett when teaching
Brand new professor. Thank you so much
Thank you for inspiring me, I am in the beginning of this path :)
As a student, I 100% agree with all of the information in this video. My 7th grade social studies teacher had 'crazy' down packed, and she was a fantastic teacher. The only people who didn't thrive in her class were the kids who didn't care about school. She frequently expressed that she loved us and she was always trying to improve her lessons.
That was a good teacher. Glad to hear you had her as a teacher
Thank you, Sir!
Thank you very very much 😊
On point Prof. I don't think our students realize sometimes how much we care and how much we want them to succeed. But when they do realize it, they seem to push themselves more. I teach Early Childhood Education courses by the way.
And the same push to improve we see no matter what the age. Thank you for commenting!
Mark,
You nailed it!!
I'm a retired educator and you are right on. What a talented educator you are!!
Love both your channels.
You are a gift and I enjoy your video gifts very much.💕
Thank you Vicky. I really appreciate the kind words.
I have taught adult ed, high school, but primarily special ed in elementary school. So no uni teaching, but this message from Mark is so spot on. I have been using the CRAZY method without knowing it. Thanks Mark for the great inspiring video. I love teaching.
That is awesome Kristi. We "crazy" educators need to stick together :)
I'm not sure why this came up again a while after I first watched it but I'm so glad I did. Excellent points Mark that as an architect I will think about and use to engage my prospects. My daughter is now pursuing a PhD at U of I and I'm definitely sharing this with her. Listening to your CRAZY definition reminds me of the scene in Rodney Dangerfield's Back To School when he feels compelled to list all of his real world experiences to his frustrated academic entrenched business professor, lol.
Really, you are awesome lecture, I will get a lot of information, thanks
You have GOT to be kidding me! I watch ALL of your travel videos as I am an avid traveler. I am actually in college now for History. I am going to be a History/Geography/Government secondary level teacher. I will be pursuing career as a college professor as well in the future. Upon searching for videos on that topic I came across THIS video! I had no idea that you were also a professor! I'm not sure how I missed that watching your other videos but I'm glad to know now. I'm so happy to subscribe to yet another channel of yours! Thank you for every informative video! I love them all! Cheers from Nashville!!!!!!!!
That is super awesome of you Kelly. Thank you. I try to keep my professor and travel stuff separate so I dont talk about it in my travel videos too often. I'm glad you found us here too. Hope you are doing ok with everything going on. All the best to you!
@@ProfessorWolters Thank you for your reply! I figured that's why you don't talk about it much on your travel channel. I'm so happy I found this though! You give amazing advice and I have to say that your videos are all spot on!
@@kellysophia1981 thank you Kelly
I teach and love it.
Good show. I liked your way of speaking, I do carry some thing with me i.e., "Care for the students"
Thank you
I don’t know who you are but love your attitude and energy!
Thank you Steven
I live in morocco! I want to thank you for all the advices sir!👍🏻👍🏻
You are very welcome
Great Zeal you have....
Thanks
Super thanks Professor Wolters. I totally agree with you. Teaching competencies, skills and expertise are incremental, developmental and experiential. As teachers we become better over time if we develop a habit of wanting to continue to learn. This is confirmed by Professor Akinpelu (2001) who argues that a teacher cannot teach effectively, unless he/she continues to learn himself/herself. Your video is inspirational.
Thank you my friend
I love this!
Thank you Roberto
I can't wait to be a professor one day you helped me so much ❤️ I'm excited to make a difference
You got this!
Really, This is awesome lecture. I got a lot of benefits of it. Thanks!
Cheers!
Great Advice!
Thanks Chris
Thank you. you are such a good speaker!
That is really nice of you. Thank you!
thanks ,I want to be a professor I have only 2years experience, this video is very helpful to me 🙂
thank you sir , you 're such an mazing professor
Thank you
👏🏼 If my professors would’ve taught this way, I wouldn’t have dreaded going to lecture
You didnt want boring lectures?
Thank you. I'm trying to help one video at a time.
Thank you professor. Awesome tips for a good lecture
Thank you
Thanks, Sir. Really a nice video.
Cheers
Great video !!
Thank you!
This was very inspiring!
Thank you
Great content, sir. I am planning to go into teach having done marketing at industry for last decade and knowing how to build and nurture marketing people, but I fear that I do not have any teaching experience or teaching qualification nor PhD, I['ve got a BA/MSc In marketing, what do you think? I love and breathe marketing?
Dear professor, i like it your videos
Thanks
I'm a budding professor and i love this video
Hope to implement it
I'm glad i can help
@@ProfessorWolters it will be fun learning from u
You’re the best
Thanks August
Great advice
Thank you for the tips ...your sharing session was very inspiring and useful.
👍👍👍👍👍
great advice
Thank you
I’m just here to see what line of work can get me traveling as much as you 😂
:)
uploads videos of your lectures....from this hall...pleaseee!
In a way I was lucky. I had 35 years in industry in 3 countries before entering academia. I had a huge pile of real world anecdote to draw on to make my classes relevant yet fun.
that is the best in my opinion. Students can respect people who have "done it" i think
Wonderful, I just got a job as an Assistant Lecturer in a Nigerian University, I must say Its fate calling coz I dnt care about the money but about knowledge and I wanna see what they see and what they think so I can fuse, amplify and practicalise for the inevitable future
Awesome! Congrats!
Hi Tosin...
How's your teaching experience going? stumbled on your comment and would appreciate some tips as an assistant lecturer
Thank you. Would like to take help from you.
I am currently writing my final high school/grammar school exams and therefore I'll soon be enrolling in a university to become an English teacher. Eventhough I'm still at least five years away from it, I want to be prepared :D
That is awesome. Remember the good stuff your favorite teachers and professors do when you have those classes and try to integrate that into your own teaching style.
This is really facts and i consent to you
Cheers
Do you have any videos on what to do on the first day of lecture? I'm so nervous first time college professor.
Ask them questions (but not the usual "tell me one fact" thing) and get them talking with each other. that helps them make bonds with each other and they want to come to class more
Thank You very much, this is quite inspiring, got in to lecturing recently and I appreciate this video. Please can You help me with someone who is into computer Science lecturing, that's my field, for more inspiration. Thank You so much
I don't know anyone the focuses j. That area sadly
What if administration assigns teacher to a subject which he or she is not so much into. Because sometimes they do it rather randomly. Especially now when funds are tight and they want to squeeze all from you.
Well they need to suck it up and realize one does not always get to teach the exact subject they dreamed of every semester. Sometimes it is on us as educators to create the passion in ourselves to make our classes better.
Sir I like u very much and love u so much
Thank you
As a university professor myself, I couldn't agree more! Admittedly, some of the stuff I teach is so theoretical that you can't really make the material into real-world examples, but you can still make sure to highlight how it's relevant to students' field and their major, and how it's full of really cool, fascinating puzzles, and give real-world examples of trying to solve those puzzles :)
True. I used to teach a very theoretical B2B course and it was tough to get those examples to relate to students but when I would talk about how they would use it at work they perked up a bit.
Awesome Professor Wolters, I would have loved to have you as a professor at UF.
Thanks Darion. It would have been a fun class but they would have booed everytime Jocelyn came in and yelled Go Dawgs :)
@@woltersworld heheheheheheee lol
😆😆😆😆😆
Omg are you the same Wolter that does Wolters World? No idea you’re a professor! I am too
A point that I'd like to add is "Keep it relevant".
One thing that's really been annoying me recently has been a professor who teaches business networking, but regularly plunges into lengthy discussion about how his mail order wife goes abroad and smuggles seeds back into the country, which she then grows in her garden. Sure, it's a nice conversation piece and something that I'd enjoy discussing at greater length in a different setting... but it has nothing to do with helping me to establish or maintain a business since I don't plan on becoming a professional seed smuggler for a living.
Yeah. Professors are know to go on slight tangents... SQUIRREL!!!!

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you have a great week.
Mark, on a previous video I asked if you were an actual teacher. (I guess my question is answered)
Yep. It's my day job
C-are for the student
R-eal word examples
A-ctual experience, yours or find others
Z-eal, have your enthusiasm to teach
Y-ou can make a difference
Care:Encourage open communication with students to make them feel welcome and cared for.
Understand the challenges and pressures students face, such as student loan debts and mental health issues.
Real-World Examples: Incorporate examples that resonate with students' lives and interests.
Connect course material to tangible experiences, such as discussing the supply chain of everyday products like coffee or smartphones.
Actual Experiences: Draw on personal professional experiences to enhance credibility and relevance.
Invite guest speakers or alumni with industry expertise to provide insights and enrich students' learning experiences.
Maintaining Enthusiasm (Z): Approach teaching with energy and excitement to engage students.
Cultivate enthusiasm for the subject matter to inspire students' interest and participation.
Recognizing the Teacher's Role (Y): Understand the influence teachers have in shaping the classroom atmosphere and students' learning experiences. Take ownership of creating a dynamic and engaging learning environment.
How to support your business
most of my university professors only cared about 1 thing: money be it for research (a little important), office renovation (a lot as most renovated their office annually), book loyalties (for recommending expensive books for their course), etc. Very little care was put into teaching. Often classes would start 10min late and finish 15min early. and scheduling if exams was purposefully bad with exams at late in the night and right next day.
i even had teachers who would demand their assignments a day earlier because the professor or TA is heading out of town for a vacation. this happened over 4 years of undergrad that made me hate academia.
That sucks. I'm sorry to hear that. Though I'm sure it happens to way too many students
@@woltersworld however, there were some few professors who were in it to teach. they didn't get the high paying research funds, but they taught well. and they made school worth it in the end.
I remember going through undergrad and realising I could find better teachers on the internet, all I needed was the course syllabus and I was better off figuring out stuff on my own.
@@asadb1990 that's great to hear
@@UncleRoykus that is what my goal is for this channel. to develop intro marketing and intermediate marketing courses via videos so people could watch my videos to help them learn.
What the chances of becoming a professor with just a Master's? Is it financially beneficial to get a PH.D?
Without a PhD you cannot go for a tenure track position at a 4 year school. You could be an instructor though
@@ProfessorWolters that's good enough for me. Would the pay be a substantial difference?
Yes
I never knew you were a teacher
Yep. Day job is Professor Wolters. But I ask the students to call me Mark :)
Professor Wolters Mark can you visit New Zealand as I believe it’s the only country you haven’t been to yet, and it’s absolutely beautiful, and breathtaking!
@@thephoenix3155 We will get there. We were looking at this Christmas, but my sister in law has a baby on the way and they want to celebrate baby's first christmas as a family so we are here for Christmas, so it looks like December 2020 is New Zealand time
As long as you don’t bash Christians.
I hate my Professors, they cant teach for their life, i learned most of the topics they taught through youtube, since on youtube the guy teaching takes 5 minutes to explain it all broken down and the professor in university takes 3 hours and im still lost
so... do my videos help at all?
lol WHAT you're a professor too???
Got to pay the bills 😀
@@ProfessorWolters i'm transferring to your school lol!
Not a reality.
