  Case: Student being inappropriate to teacher
I have a boy, around 18 years old, in my class that I am interning at that loves to make sexual comments at me and talk about me in a sexual way to his friends for amusement. I have tried everything I can to stop this student from doing this, including going to administration. Nothing has changed! My CT tells me to ignore him and he will stop. I am not comfortable with this and I do not want it to escalate to other students. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This kind of behavior cannot be tolerated in the classroom and has to be dealt with quickly. Speak to your CT about how to nip this quickly the next time it happens. The student will get one warning, after that it's a trip to the office so he can explain exactly what he said to you or his friends to the principle or on the phone to his parents. He's 18, he is an adult, and he has to learn the consequences of actions such as this. Even as a teacher, this is still sexual harassment.

Comments: I think having them explain to the principle or parents is a good consequence. This student needs to learn to have respect and stop this behavior since he has been corrected on it many times.
