Question

What would happen if I decided to change the rules?

If you decided to change the rules, you should alert the students and let them be aware of right away so they could follow them. If the rule is related to the school policies, the principal or head manager of the school should be alerted of it first so it could be agreed upon and followed.

Question

What if the student won't open up?

Give it time and be patient. A good student-teacher relationship is built on trust. A teacher cannot force their students to open up, but they usually will once a trusting relationship is established. Be kind, caring, empathetic, and engaging, and you'll soon find that your students turn to you for help.

Question

I am struggling with a student misbehaving in my ESL class. He is clever enough to pretend as if he's not understanding a word I'm saying. I've tried everything, but nothing is working. Any advice?

Try not to let one student get too much of your energy. Focus on other individual students or on the group as a whole. You can also call him out: "Don't be like that, you're perfectly smart." Ask him, in front of the group or in private, why he's acting this way. If he gets unruly, "Spend that energy on getting smarter rather than pretending to be deaf." Talk to your colleagues and ask how they handle him. Stay strong, you'll find something that ticks with him.

Question

Why should the teacher be able to employ a complex and varied system of allocating resources?

Community Answer

Because she/he/they has/have complex and varied students! All students are different in their learning methods, and the greater variety of resources you have, the more students you can help.

Question

What have you learned about students with emotional and behavior disorders?

Community Answer

A lot of times, they require different accommodations. Whether that's allowing them to use non-distracting fidget toys or have a say in their schedule, there is usually something that can be done to help them excel. Sit down and talk with them and ask what they need (or, in the case of a behavioral disorder, consult the parent.)
