They constantly run to the intern and when ever the intern asks the student to do something they do it immediately. Whenever I ask the student I have to ask several times. The student also acts out whenever it is just myself and constantly interrupts me during lessons. Is there anything I can do to possibly get the student to listen to myself? The intern is only with me two days out of the week and will occasionally come in to fulfill some volunteer hours. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would observe the intern and see if they have valid techniques or styles of teaching that make the students not want to interrupt. Also, how are you address the misbehavior when the students interrupt you or require multiple requests to do the work? Be sure to address that bad behavior immediately, if the whole class is doing it, target a few students that are bad and the rest will follow.
