Classroom management Advice For Young Teachers

Posted by teacher on November 11, 2011

A student being a pain and disrupting a lesson? Send them to a teacher in the farthest, most remote corner of the school with a note for a ‘long stand’ or ‘an idiot exchange’. They’re bound to read the note on the way and will get the message. In the meantime you can get on with teaching your class in peace.

Each teacher has their own style of dealing with disruptive pupils but I’ve always found that dealing with them in humorous ways works best. It’s not always possible when you’re tired, frazzled and have deadlines to meet, but think about the methods you have seen in practice and try different approaches to see what works for you.
