Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) It helps if the teacher uses you as a consistent sub so the students can build a relationship with you and thus respect you. Being a sub is hard work but I would make sure I asserted myself and ensure you have perfected your teaching voice. Be stern and direct and the students will know they cannot walk all over you.
