  Case: Doesn't Respond to Name
One of my students does not respond when her name is called. I have to tap the student in order to get her attention. I discussed my observation with the parent and asked if they had noticed this and what could be the cause of it? They replied that nothing is wrong with the child, I just must not be saying it loud enough or perhaps there is too much going on around the student. However, even when I am only a foot behind the student saying her name, she still does not seem to hear me. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would talk to the student one on one and ask if they are hearing you or not. Another good thing to do is to make eye contact with the student while calling their name, a lot of times it'll get their attention. Another good thing to do is using other types of non verbal communication like gestures and body language.
