The teacher must know how to adapt with the various qualities and attributes of the students as well as with the kind subject he/she is to teach. By maintaining an objective analysis with and every student coupled with the full understanding of the subject matter, decision on whether to use the mixture of theory and application or just the theory or application can be managed easily.
