Case: Lack of Knowledge by Co-Teacher
I have had the unfortunate experience where I had a co-teacher that did not understand and did not attempt to understand the content that I was teaching. I would have to teach this class like I would teach a class without a co-teacher because the co-teacher did not attempt to learn anything. All the co-teacher would do is pull out students when it was time to test. I did not want to cause a problem with this co-teacher by going to an administrator, but something must be done. What can I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Before approaching administration you need to have a conversation with your co-teacher. You both simply sit down and speak your expectations of the other individual. This will give you the opportunity to speak your mind without your co-worker feeling slighted.
If this still does not work a simple pd or meeting on the expectations of co-teaching in the school. Someone can model what it can look like and the expectations of both parties. After this attempt, if your co-worker is still not working to full capacity it is time to speak to administration. |

| Comments: It is very important to sit down with your co-teacher to discuss how you are feeling. This person may not be aware that you feel that way and may have a good reason for their behavior. If they do not further steps should be taken to allow the students to benefit as they should. |
