or French or Amharic or whatever language you're lecturing in.
If you write anything on a board, or slide or notes, check the spelling and the grammar. You do not want students laughing at your illiteracy.
If you are lecturing in a language that is not your own mother tongue, make friends with a native speaker and get them to help.smiley - star

I agree wholeheartedly with this one, and I'm glad to see a suggestion for how it could be improved, because it can really make the lectures impossible to understand sometimes. I wander if it would be possible for the "friend" lecturer to sit in on the non-native's lectures, so that they could pick up the most important points...
