Home | How It Works | Stats Login | Register         Case: Playing favorites In my current internship, I am working in an SVE classroom at an ESE center. There is one classroom teacher, and she has two assistants. There is only one female student in the classroom. She is very bright, but has a VERY slow processing time. The aids have absolutely no patience for her. They constantly get annoyed and reprimand her for small things, but do not treat any of the other students like this. I have made it my personal goal to have a high tolerance level for her, and praise her as often as I can. My CT does not act this way toward her, but does not do anything about the attitudes of her assistants. I think she is afraid of disrupting the peace in the classroom. Does anyone have any suggestions for how this should be solved? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I think a conversation needs to happen between the teachers in the room--or, at the very least, between you and the teacher and then the teacher and the aides. Ideally, an open communication forum where all four of you could sit and talk would be best, but this isn't always possible in situations like these. The aids need to gain a little more patience with her and treat her as they treat the other students. Her slow processing time isn't her fault.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I completely agree with this. The CT needs to speak with her aides and they need more patients or they need to get out. Rated On: October 17, 2016 1:45 am Rated By: TaTaBy
