He has a very strong accent, has never taught in a classroom before and sometimes seems insulted by women giving him advice. There are several students that give him a hard time because they have a strong military background in their family.Two of my students have lost family members in the war overseas. The parents do like him and the students do not like him. He does not have a a warm and welcoming personality and he is very strict. This is his first year teaching and it is going disastrous. I do not like what I over hear the students saying about him. Administration has not stepped in to assist on either side because I think they are nervous about his reaction. If you were a fellow teacher, would you try to discuss this with the teacher or just let the situation play itself out. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would extend my welcome to the teacher and let him know that I support him. I would make sure to be friendly with him in front of students, to show them that he is a good person, as well as my friend. Other than that, I would let the situation play out. If he were to bring it up, I would talk to him about it and offer help however I could.
