What can I say to not make her feel like she's not really not my type? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would stay in her classroom for a few days to get an idea of how she does things. Seeing things and getting tips from a newer teacher's perspective could actually be really helpful, as you will ideally be in her shoes soon enough. If after giving her a chance you still strongly feel as though you are not benefiting from being in her classroom, I would talk to whoever assigned you into that class about receiving a new placement.
