　　Words are powerful: they have the ability to lift up the lowest of the low or tear down the highest of the high. But a strong argument could be made that our body language is even more influential. The most effective communication occurs when the importance of body language in teaching is acknowledged. When these nonverbal signals are working together with our words, it creates communication synergy.
　　It has been suggested that two−thirds of our communication is nonverbal. Positive body language in a classroom setting has the ability to motivate and inspire students and engage their attention. It can not only give you the confidence to teach you need but also inform your students that you actually know what you're talking about. It can even make your students feel safe and confident enough to participate in the lessons more frequently.
　　Most leadership positions encourage body language that demonstrates power and confidence. Signals include standing tall, gesturing only from the waist up, keeping the head straight and forward, and talking while pointing to others, which are obvious ways to exercise control. But when teaching, the nonverbal signals need to show a different type of leader. These signals convey warmth and understanding, reminding your students that you are approachable and there to help them grow. For example, fix your eyes on one student for about 15−30 seconds before changing to another student, which is one of the best ways to keep students’ focus. Nod your head. Give a thumbs−up−maybe two! Show them they are on the right path and they will be more confident in continuing down it.
　　The importance of body language can never be ignored. It's desirable that you should advocate using body language in teaching and pay attention to the using rules and using skills. You should use appropriate, natural and clear body language. It's crucial that you create a good classroom atmosphere, inspire students' imagination and grasp students' mood.
