  Case: DON'T CALL OUT!
I am an intern. My CT is nice (with occasional mood swings), but she does not give me feedback and gets irritated when I ask for her suggestions.
I am having issues with students calling out. It is just two students. So far, I have talked to them but it did not work. I do not want to punish them because they mean well. They really need to stop calling out though. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
While I agree with the post regarding positive reinforcement for those who ARE following the rules, perhaps in addition you can approach your CT with your issue, and how you plan to resolve it, and see how she reacts to that. Perhaps this teacher isn't necessarily irritated that you are asking her her assistance, but rather that you are asking her to solve an issue, and she wants you to work through it. Much like approaching a boss, presenting an issue and resolution is usually more well received than just presenting an issue.

Just an additional thought!

Comments: This is great advice. Having a "get it done myself" attitude is probably what the CT is looking for.

Comments: Totally. Your CT should offer his or her advice and input and you should take advantage of it.

Comments: I agree with this solution! I'd try to level with the CT and have a one-on=one discussion with her where you offer proactive solutions about what to with these students.
