Where will you be teaching? Different parts of the world hold different views of education and have different practices. Will you be teaching in North America or Indonesia?

It's a good thing that you ask for help. That's the most important thing for a teacher. Just keep on learning. The first year of teaching it's always the hardest year.
I am an Indonesian and I also teach in English.

These are the things that I've done to improve my teaching:
Always be prepared by:
1. Make an outline, practice it if you need too. Write it on the board.
2. Memorize the definitions.
3. Learn how to pronounce the scientific terms.
4. Read "The Seven Law of Teaching" (this book is a big help for me)

Hang on, practice makes perfect. =)
