Case: Teaching "Teacher Kids"
Working as a teacher presents us with a task like no other. We have to deal with, not only our students, but their parents as well. Oftentimes, for me, I have great communication skills with my parents. I take the time to give them what they need, and they feel comfortable reaching out to me. The only time this gets cumbersome is when I teach a teachers kid, or teaching a child of a staff member in the building. How do I establish boundaries with these parents? Should I approach them differently than other parents? How do I separate school from a possible outside friendship?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have many communication tools that I use with parents. Some of them are digital, and allow parents to communicate with me outside of school hours and physical space. I try to set parameters with parents at open house or parent orientation. I think that setting clear boundaries from the beginning will prevent a lot of communication problems. Stop the conversation before it becomes detailed. Ask the parents to schedule a conference time at the school in order to talk about concerns. |

Comments: Setting parameters/boundaries is smart, its important that the student gets the education that the teacher intends them to get. |
