  Case: Coteaching
I have a colleague at a former school that is co-teaching with a new teacher this year. This "new" teacher has been teaching for years and has been know to stir up problems. My friend has called on many occasions complained that her co-teacher is not prepared for lessons and not effectively delivering instruction. She wants to talk with her principal about the issues, but does not want to cause trouble between her and her co-teacher. She has to work with this teacher for the rest of the school term. How can she solve this problem without causing tension between her and the co-teacher?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I believe that she should speak to administration about it. There is no way around the issue of tension unfortunately. But the important thing to think about is who is getting hurt here. It should not be about one another feelings but about how it is effecting the student by the co-teach not doing what they are supposed to be doing. Lets face it the co-teach is in the room for a reason and the reason being because the students in the class need extra help.
