When this did not work, she would look at me and tell me the kids are all bad, and she asks how can she be ding this job with kids that don't listen. The kids all hear her say this, and after, they act up even more. She only adds fuel to their fire. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) It could definitely be an awkward situation. However, I would take mental notes on how the class acts before and after her comments, and use that to help use different words to get better results. Trial and error
