Case: Being Viewed as the Teacher
I am interning in a middle school class, grades 6-7. My CT has procedures in place for a classroom management plan and for the most part it seems to be effective. The issue I am experiencing, even when I implement her procedures and expectations, is that the students don’t view me as the “teacher figure.” This is especially true in times where I am left alone with the students. I find that my CT and I have different demeanors - and I think that might play a role in how the students view us. I’m more soft spoken and don’t have a loud protected voice. How do I get the students to view me as another one of their teachers while still maintaining my softer, kinder demeanor? I don’t want to come across too harsh or unnatural sounding if I need to be more stern with the kids.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is a dilemma that I have also encountered with being young and working in the upper grade levels. I would recommend that you go into your internship every day like you are supposed to be there. When talking, teaching, or redirecting the students, do it with confidence. I have found that when your students see that you are confident and comfortable in the situation (classroom), they will tend to test you less and respect you as another teacher in the room. They can't trust you as a teacher in their classroom if you do not project yourself as one. |

| Comments: I also feel it is important to have confidence and to carry yourself in a manor that shows your confidence. If a child can sense your uneasy or unsure of yourself they will walk all over you. Demand the same respect from them that you show them.. |

| Comments: I agree with this solution because older students may easily be able to detect when their instructor is unsure, inconsistent and lacks confidence. Being sure to act confident when teaching, disciplining, and rewarding the students will help them learn to respect the intern and accept their role as an authority figure. |

| Comments: This solution will likely solve the problem. Even if the intern or teacher does not feel confident it would be best to for students to see the teacher this way. Sounding and looking as professional as possible will give students the sense that she is the authority figure and not one of them. |
