  Case: Talking like a white girl
I work at an inner-city school and I am the only white person in the classroom. Whenever I have a behavior issue with a student, I follow our school guidelines. When discussing it with my mentor teacher and team leader, they always respond that I need to quit talking to my students like a white girl. They inform me that my students come from the ghetto and sometimes it is necessary to be loud and "ghetto" to get respect from students. I don't agree with this. Any suggestions of how to get respect from my students and have them follow the rules of the classroom?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have been in your situation before. I don't think this has anything to do with being a "white girl", but more to do with the tone of your voice. I don't think you need to be "ghetto", but stern. In their culture they are use to their parents being very hard on them. I think that if you have a more stern tone and don't back down when they sass you back this should help. I think once you are able to show your authority in the classroom they will respect you. Also, remember that if you send them to another teacher or adult that tells them that you can't handle them and you "give up".

Comments: Showing authority in the classroom is how you will set the rules and procedure. By showing the students you respect them when they do what you ask and follow class/school rules they will gain respect for you, without getting in their face 'ghetto'.

If you respond with a tone or style that is not yours the students may think you are mocking them or they may not take you serious. Being firm and standing your ground is the best way to approach this situation.

Comments: I disagree. First off, I would go to the superior about being "profiled" by my peers. I don't think that was necessary to be called a "white" girl. I think she simply sounds educated for speaking properly. That is why these students are in school, correct? Then, they as students, no matter where they live need to be educated and should be expected to speak properly even if that means to sound like a "white" girl.

Comments: Yes I agree sometimes when students are used to life being hard on them and then someone comes along who is soft spoken or to kind it is mistook for weakness when in fact you're just trying to reach them the way you know how. Maybe just be a little more stern with somethings to let them know you're serious about teaching them and that they can't rid of you that easy.

Comments: It is very important for students to understand when you, as their teacher and an adult, are being serious. Earning their respect does not mean you have to be sassy back to them or try to intimidate them. Just being respectful of who they are and the type of environment they are raised in should make them listen, and respect, you more.

Comments: Letting your students know who is boss before hand will let them know that just cause your a “white girl” doesn’t change anything.

Comments: I agree with this that she may be coming off as too nice and they are just trying to tell her that the students may start to take advantage of her.

Comments: I think the teacher should be able to talk to the students in their own tone to communicate how they feel is best. There shouldn't be stigmas around different tones.

Comments: this a great solution, instead of talking in a ghetto tone, have more of a stern tone and be able to stand up for yourself and let your students know the respect they should have for their teacher.

Comments: I agree with your statements. I feel that by sending them to another teacher you are only going to get more disrespect. I think that by being stern you are showing the kids that you mean business and that they will not disrespect you. It may also help to make an attempt to further understand their culture.

Comments: I agree with your ideas and I think changing your tone and not backing down when they sass back will help. It will take time to show your authority and gain respect from students but don't let it discourage you from doing your job.

Comments: Overall I felt this was the best listed solution because it offers an explanation to differing points of view. This form of clear communication informs the teacher that a stern tone might be needed, which the teacher can then utilize to effectively communicate.
