I have been an elementary school teacher for 12 years and I could tell in 5 minutes that you were an excellent teacher! You know how to anticipate, read, and react (in that order) to the table's vibe.
I'm about to start a community TTRPG group. There's more than running a good game. You have to prove a good environment. A bad game session can happen. A player will probably still come back. A bad environment will stop a player from coming back.
speaking as a GM who only plays online now (thanks covid) that empathy one is hard through voice chat. not knowing what the players are doing when it's not their turn makes it nearly impossible to gauge their level of engagement
@@pacodance29 we encourage use of voice chat, video, and private chat PMs as well as check in on players between sessions. It is indeed challenging, it just requires more deliberate attention (at least for us and our professional GMs). We’re glad you’re here.
I’d agree that those things mentioned in the video are quite important in running ttrpgs. However, this video didn’t go into much detail about how to improve at those things for people who don’t immediately have those skills. Might be another good video topic.
GMs who run games as a service. We've run over 17,000 sessions for players. Its pretty awesome. It really solves the "people aren't invested" or "scheduling" challenges. Link in our bio if you care to learn more about what we do.

Going to just lay it out there: that means a lot to me my friend. You just described the essence of being a quality educator (and DM).
Keep at it, these videos are golden. So much essential info per minute is crazy.
@@raycojosecanogonzalez8016 that makes me so happy to hear my friend. Please let me know if there is another topic you’d find useful. I’ll do my best.

Not pnly that I'm seriously thinking in applying IF a spot is available!

Word to regular room checks. I missed that once and I no longer run that gaming group.

What is a professional session?

@@rpgclubnet Can I get hired as a professional DM?

I found these advice very vague and general like "try to improve you communication skills". This doesn´t help me at all
@@slugg087 this my help with more concrete ideas.
