Heather's absolutely right, please don't let it get you down and keep doing what you're doing.

Never lose sight of the fact that you can't do anything about what they try to do but you can control your reaction to it, both inwardly in not dwelling on their silliness, and outwardly in showing your refusal to accept poor attitudes and behaviours. The funny thing is they often respect those who challenge them.

I had them today, and they turned up half an hour late to a 40 minute lesson because they're on a new timetable and the previous teacher hadn't realised. They were really very meek and submissive because I think they could tell I was furious. So I'm trying to give them the benefit of the doubt and move on. Will see what they're like next Tuesday. xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02110400448566738853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927469859444296816.post-28707910994035672442012-08-02T19:43:59.337+01:002012-08-02T19:43:59.337+01:00Anna you really mustn't take this personally. ...Anna you really mustn't take this personally. Think back to when you were at school-didn't you love to get one over on teachers? I certainly did. I did things I blush to remember. Students, like toddlers, like to push to see the effect they get. They pick on anything they can. You have lots going for you so being able to speak German was probably all they could think of to work on. Go in with a sense of humour and they'll probably forget it.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09109386252999487591noreply@blogger.com
