  Case: Co-worker trying to tell me how to do my job
This year I was selected as the grade-level chairperson for Kindergarten. Another Kindergarten teacher, new to Kindergarten this year, has been a grade-level chair in first grade. She is constantly behind me "reminding" me to do things and telling me how she used to do things in first grade. How do I tell her that I can handle my responsibilities without coming across as being rude?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is a tough one and it is something I have currently been dealing with. You have to come at her in a polite manner and tell her that you appreciate the support and you will be glad to come to her for any help, but to please allow you to figure things out yourself and respect your position.
