The students are great in the general education setting, but not so great in the learning strategies classes. I have quite a few students who are very deviant with me when it comes to listening during instructional time and independent work time. I confronted my CT about the problems I am having with these students that chose not to listen to me. However, all she says to me is that because I am young I appear to be more of a peer than a teacher to them. The problems have continued to persist and my CT still does not seem to want to help me communicate to my students further about respecting me as their teacher too. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) What does this deviant behavior look like? It could work to your advantage that you are closer to the age of the students. Don't take it personal that the CT said this to you.
