10 Commandments of Teaching

I just read a blog about the 10 commandments of teaching and I think the best one that hits home for me is Thou shalt honor your students time as you expect them to honor yours.   By being a teacher you take up a student's time both in the classroom and out of the classroom.  As I take up their time they too take up mine but just because I am the teacher does not mean that they have to wait for a test to be graded.  I try my hardest to grade and record their tests as quickly as possible but it doesn't always go according to plan.  I need to honor their time just as I would expect them to complete an assignment on time they should have the same expectations of me.  I found this an interesting commandment of teaching.
