| Do not interrupt. Let the student complete the answer. | If nothing works, then give the answer yourself and ask the student to restate the answer. |
| If that does not help, then rephrase the question. | Do not ask another student to answer and ask the student to repeat the answer. |
| Break up the question into small parts. | Encourage the student. Do not humiliate the student for not knowing the answer. |
| Restate the question. | The whole process should not take too much time, about 15 seconds. Or else, the class may become inattentive. |
| Simplify the question. | Give hints. |
