One of the things I am naturally drawn to in the certificate coursework is the use of confidence-building techniques. One method I like that I recently observed at a school for dyslexic children made a child beam--the teacher had the child complete a spelling exercise the child was proficient at. She then praised the child in front of the class and the adult observers who were invited in for the morning. I believe the combination of experiencing the satisfaction of doing a task well combined with praise and recognition can be extremely motivating and effective at building self-confidence. I'd love to hear of other confidence-building techniques that others have found particularly effective.
