I think the promotion of gender equality in the classroom is very important right now in South Africa. My contribution in this will assist in addressing gender based violence, even if it is in a small way.
-
I also think the promotion of gender equality should be more considered during this time. This will help to create a conducive learning environment where learners are free and can express themselves in a way they feel comfortable with and we appreciate them. Building a learners self-confidence is very simple,show the learn you trust him/her, show love without judging but guiding and encouraging them always,they gain confidence in everything.

I strongly agree with promoting gender equality in classroom, learners need to feel safe and included in their classroom.

Dress code. A professional appearance is important when employees work with customers or potential customers.

Cell phone used at work. Personal cell phone usage during work hours is discouraged, except in extreme cases such as an emergency.
-
I fully agree, cellphones should be used on extreme conditions
-
I personally agree , cellphone usage at work during working hours should be banned. It waste time of the teacher and that of the learners. Unless it is an emergency case teachers should put their phones on silent mode when entering their respective classrooms and attend to it during their free time like during breaks or after school.

I strongly agree cellphones during work is sign of not taking your work serious
-
The use of cellphones are a distruction for both teachers and learners and is an academic fall back because it takes aways the attention and focus.

I concur with you, cellphones can easily distract you. To avoid distraction cellphone shouldn’t be near classrooms.

I agree with you an educator should recognizes the parents as partners in education and promotes a harmonious relationship with them.

As a teacher it is important to dress in a proper way so that you can have dignity, look good and be comfortable around both learners and colleagues. Remember as a teacher you are a role model, mother, pastor, nurse, etc. Dressing well will make everyone respect you.
