<br><h3> Chapter One </h3> PART I. IN THE CLASSROOM <p> <p> PURPOSE <p> <b>1. Helping the student</b>. One of the most important tasks of the teacher is to help his students.

But if he is left alone with his problem without any help or with insufficient help, he may make no progress at all. If the teacher helps too much, nothing is left to the student. The teacher should help, but not too much and not too little, so that the student shall have a <i>reasonable share of the work</i>. <p> If the student is not able to do much, the teacher should leave him at least some illusion of independent work. In order to do so, the teacher should help the student discreetly, <i>unobtrusively</i>. <p> The best is, however, to help the student naturally. The teacher should put himself in the student's place, he should see the student's case, he should try to understand what is going on in the student's mind, and ask a question or in
