  Case: Wanting to be the "Cool Teacher" while also having the respect of my students.
As I am about to enter into my observation hours and internships, one thing I hope to learn from those, if not on here, is how to be a teacher that is likeable but also a teacher that my students respect as a figure of authority. What are the best ways to gain those levels of respect in regards to teaching methods(student and teacher based styles)?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
To begin, I would start by identifying the role of the student and teacher within the classroom you enter. As you mentioned, a level of respect must be earned from the students for a teacher to manage the classroom effectively. Sometimes, the teacher you are observing/interning with will be focused on addressing the needs of the whole class and teaching the necessary content to stay with the curriculum. I would suggest asking the teacher if there are students you could work with to provide additional support and get to know the students. I feel an easy way to be the "cool teacher" is by being patient and willing to listen to the student's concerns.
