Even when I ask her nicely to complete a task, she agrees to complete the task but then it does not get completed. I have spoken with administration regarding this issue and conferences have been held concerning her job performance. However, it will be after the conclusion of this school year that I may get a new paraprofessional. Any suggestions for the remainder of the school year? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I have been on both sides of this situation. After finishing college, I would put into a paraprofessional position because there were not teaching openings. My lead teach was not the nicest, nor did she let me help her with anything important. She would "nicely" bark orders at me. It was not a fun situation. Maybe she feels as if she is not doing things good enough for you, and has given up. Which is by no means acceptable. Try to get to know her. Ask her how she is or if something is bothering her. Be friendly and try to make her feel comfortable with you. It is important to have a positive relationship with the people working with you.
