Case: Students of Poverty
A new teacher at Mr. Roberts school is having a hard time earning the respect of his students. The majority of the students come from poverty, and they have tendencies that demonstrate disrespect. One of those is eye contact when being talked to and another is students laughing when they are being redirected in front of their peers. Mr. Roberts knows that students of poverty respond better when being reprimanded in private and praised in public. He doesn't want to step on the new teacher's toes, but wants to help this teacher in this regard. What is the best way to do this?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
All new teachers have mentors assigned to them and in this case the mentor should be made aware of the situation occurring in the classroom. Mr. Roberts can either unobtrusively ask the new teacher how things are going in the classroom and if the problem of disrespect is shared, he can then suggest that the new teacher contact his/her mentor for guidance. If the new teacher does not mention the problem, Mr. Roberts could use gentle probing comments such as mentioning that when he began teaching one of his concerns was in classroom management that may open the conversation towards that topic. Another suggestion is for Mr. Roberts to speak with administration about the situation in a helpful manner and with no negativity so that they can perhaps visit the class (walk through only) to apprise the situation and provide guidance if needed. |

| Comments: I think that this suggestion is helpful regarding how to help the teacher who is new to the school because if the advice comes from a mentor figure, it is more likely to be perceived just as it is, advice rathe than criticism. |
