  Case: I Don't Fit In
I have a Hispanic student in my class who struggles to get along with other students. He is constantly getting into arguments with other students and always thinks that everyone is against him. I have spoken to him about this, but the problems still continue. I'm not sure if his difficulties come from cultural differences or if he really does not get along with others. At times I think he gets defensive because he doesn't understand what is going on. How do I handle this problem?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I believe you have everything you could do as a teacher, so going above is the next step. If you school as a counselor, I think they should have student talk to them. I think its a mindset that they need to get rid off. I would so go I to reassurance territory. Give them the knowledge that it's okay and that not everyone is out to get them.
