The first lesson might be worrying not only for teachers, but also for learners. You have no idea regarding their levels and skills, goals, and interests, so you have many things to do. The first day is not the right time to overwhelm learners with difficult tasks and long lectures. They will have enough time to dive deep into nuances. What is more important is to make new students feel comfortable on the first day. Let them know, they can trust you. But don't try to become one of them otherwise, they won't respect you. This day is also important for you because of the first impression. You should express sympathy and compassionate curiosity. Be serious, but don't neglect an opportunity to show your sense of humor.
