  Case: Co-Teaching Difficulties
I'm working in a setting where I feel restricted by my co-teacher. They let the students get away with a lot, like playing on their phone, sitting on the floor and refusing to work, and talking back. It makes any kind of lesson almost impossible. This teacher has seniority over me, and has been here for quite some time. How should I approach this?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I'd suggest having a private conversation asking why he conducts his class that way. It's not interrogating or instigating if you come across as curious with a probing question.

Comments: Sometimes a private conversation is all it takes to help set up some boundaries and grasp and understanding on how they run their class.
