The answer lies within your willingness to do nothing less than your best each and every time you sit down to prepare for the days work. It is no easy task to effectively create a proper lesson plan. Often, it takes more time to plan one lesson than it actually takes to teach a class.
This may seem discouraging to prospective teachers, especially those with little to no previous experience. However, no one said that creativity couldn't be incorporated into your classes. Don't be put off by the thought of arduous hours trying to make the perfect lesson plan.
Instead, try to make each lesson as fun as possible. There are ways, indeed resources available to you for just that purpose alone. It takes more than a perfectionist to make learning fun. It takes someone who isn't afraid to laugh at themselves and who can turn a simple straightforward class into something original, quirky and far more interesting than your kids could have hoped for.
Make lesson planning something to look forward to instead of just being a necessity.
