The teacher takes on the role of 'the prompter' when he/she Correct Answer Encourages students

To create a successful education, good classroom management will be so much needed, because by applying this, a teacher can control, organize, assess, and prompt a class well. Based on the fact that the role of a teacher in managing classroom is needed by the teachers, following are the roles of a teacher:
  • The Prompter: The teacher encourages students to participate and makes suggestions about how students may proceed in an activity. The teacher should be helping students only when necessary.
  • The Participant: This role improves the atmosphere in the class when the teacher takes part in an activity. However, the teacher takes a risk of dominating the activity when performing it.
  • The Resource: The teacher is a kind of walking resource centre ready to offer help if needed, or provide learners with whatever language they lack when performing communicative activities. The teacher must make her/himself available so that learners can consult her/him when (and only when) it is absolutely necessary.
  • The Controller: The teacher is in complete charge of the class, what students do, what they say and how they say it. In this classroom, the teacher is mostly the centre of focus. There is also a perception that this role could have a lack of variety in its activities.

Hence, we conclude that the teacher takes on the role of 'the prompter' when he encourages students.
