Case: Inappropriate Behavior from Teacher
I work in a middle school class as a tutor once a week and I have noticed that one of the teachers I work with is showing more and more inappropriate behavior towards the students. She is very easily offended, and is very defensive. She always thinks students are talking bad about her and will often say things like "if you have something to say, say it to my face", "you're not man enough to talk to me about it" and other majorly inappropriate things to say to an 11-14 year old kid. She clearly shows favorites and has said to a kid, "I wish you would just leave", and has called one particular student a "bitch" and a "lost cause", both times in front of other students. I feel like her behavior is getting worse as the year goes on. I have even felt like the anger was directed at me once because I have a good relationship with a particular group of kids I work with and she thought they were talking bad about her to me. Afterwards, she angrily called them "your little friends" to me. As I am only a tutor, and am barely recognized as an actual employee of the school, what should I do? I never know what attitude I am going to walk into, and when it is a bad day for her, she makes her students, and me, miserable.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would discuss the negative behavior of the teacher to the school's principal first, asking them if they can address what you have observed and experienced with the teacher. I would also try talking with the teacher and explain to them that you feel disrespected by her tone and actions and that all you want is what is best for the students. |

| Comments: I like this solution and approach of talking directly with the teacher. To be honest, at the rate of this teacher it may be better not to challenge them head-on, verse speaking above her. |

| Comments: I would address the situation with admin. However, I may wait to address it with the teacher depending on the type of behaviors already being displayed. Having a third party present to mediate or witness may be more beneficial. |

| Comments: This solution is relatively easy and straight to the point. Contacting the principal will most definitely get the teacher to reconsider her actions. Hopefully this issue can be resolved, for the students and the tutor. |
