With the end of August just days ahead, I am thinking about all those new teachers starting out the first day of school year and truthfully, it gives me the shivers. Only teachers can understand the mistakes of each new teacher. Every new teacher has to start out somewhere and find the style of teaching that speaks to him or her. Don’t beat yourself if you’ve still learning the ropes of classroom management.
1. New teachers sometimes fail to overlook discipline problems – Students can smell an organized lesson straight from the start. But they can also smell out a new teacher. It is usually the lack of a classroom management plan that makes a new teacher appear vulnerable. It just part of the students’ nature – they love to test the limits.

Introduction
Education is sacrosanct to national development. Education and national development are the two sides of a coin that mutually reinforce and challenge each other. Jega [1997] affirmed, “Education is generally regarded as a necessary and essential requirement for national development. It is central to socioeconomic and technological advancement, and it is critical to self-sustaining and self-generating process of positive transformation of modern society.”
The government appreciates the significance of education to national development and will marshal its resources to attain its avowed goal of a reinvigorated public service. Odumosu [2004] said, “Education in Nigeria is … a huge government venture that has witnessed evolution of government complete and dynamic intervention and active participation. The Federal Government has adopted education as an instrument per excellence for effective national development.”

Because new teachers experience overwhelming stress when they enter the profession, with paper work, classroom management and inexperience, it is essential that there is a means or a way for new teachers to transition from student to teacher. This is a way that can help new teachers become experienced teachers with less stress.
