Exactly! She should say "thankyou to those who are doing what I've asked" whilst looking disapprovingly at those misbehaving. Also, standing near those misbehaving individuals really helps. Additionally, if you speak to each offending child IN PRIVATE then that will have a positive effect. Never let even the tiniest thing slide. If they are being disruptive, quiet them and the class (without directly negating them, as explained before) and then after the task is set, approach them and give them options. Let them think that you are treating them like adults, put the power in their hands. Show them respect by not embarrassing them in front of the class. Most children will respond better to individual, private corrections. It also shows that you've got eyes in the back of your head!
+Peter Barry did I make a personal attack? no? I noticed something she needed to improve in her teaching and applied to it my own. I find it very amusing that you ask why teachers are so judgemental, whilst making judgements about me....
I'm sorry but I find the culture of teaching quite judgmental at the present time. I was protecting the teacher who I felt was getting a hard time. Because teaching is actually incredibly hard work and if anything goes wrong in a classroom it is usually the teacher who is held, sometimes unfairly, to blame.
Like other videos in this series, great discussion prompters. This one shows the need for better training in positive behaviour management. The new teachers need to work on effective individual & group praise, phrasing of directions, prevention rather than reaction, DRL for individual & group behaviors etc. Good beginning of semester assignment to offer recommendations, & then a redo of the same assignment at end of term when we've learned effective interventions.

I trained the same time as these guys and still teaching. As its September I thought back to my first teaching job and was worse than these but so much better now. I hope they're still in the profession and thriving.
Shit parenting is the main problem, I've taught violent, aggressive 14-16 yr old boys who're still going through the 'terrible twos' ,,, and then I meet the parents and it all makes sense. One sees it in early Primary settings, too. The kids know all about computer games but cannot read ... Parents shrug and say "he doesn't want to read". Oh, that's okay, then. Just let him do what he wants because he's 6 yrs old and you're just his parent.
The government has cut budgets so that behaviour support has gone in many authorities. These teachers could get some support for really difficult children which would help the rest of the class and give them some powerful strategies early in their careers.
Would love to know where they are now! Watching in my trainee year under lockdown to get a more broad experience. Kudos to these NQTs for allowing these to be shared! Love the self reflection these two have, great quality. You can see that they can't see what they're doing wrong, and they are trying to improve - nice work. Really helped me watching this.
I taught in a similar school in South London as an NQT around 10 years ago. It really can be a baptism of fire - it was for me and seemed to be for these two. I made many of the same mistakes these teachers made, but it was a huge learning curve for me. It meant a decade later classroom management is my great strength. It’d be interesting to know if these two stuck it out. If they did, I’d bet they’re outstanding teachers by now. Unfortunately a lot of new teachers give it up after a few years
No offence to the brunette teacher but she has no control of the kids. Personally I think it's okay to be stern but keep the voice level quiet, if needed you could raise your voice but not shouting or often or the kids wouldn't learn.
She sounds Canadian...I'm an American teaching in London schools and get asked if I'm Canadian all the time. The accent is very difficult to distinguish, very similar..just a few different pronunciations in certain words.
the brunette's behaviour management is absolutely terrible. I'm in my final year of teaching at Uni and she has nothing on me. just sounds like a nagging woman
Thank you for uploading this. Just watching the teacher scold behaviour instead of rewarding positive behaviour, is a real eye opener.

I'm sure you're right but it's a very tough job and the lady has accepted her weakness. Give her a break.
It's not actually that easy to ignore poor behaviour. It's an easy trap to fall into. Why are so many teachers so judgmental?

Agree

Doing the same thing! So nervous in terms of behaviour management as all kids are back on Monday 😬 Feels like starting back in September!

Miss Tara was my teacher and I’m actually in the videos a few times. Would LOVE to know where she was now. She was my favourite teacher
I like that Devonté tells his mom everything.
Hello, you are doing a good job. Thanks for sharing this video.
Thank you for sharing this video! Perservere and stay blessed!!!!! Practise, practise.
No offence to the brunette teacher but she has no control of the kids. Personally I think it's okay to be stern but keep the voice level quiet, if needed you could raise your voice but not shouting or often or the kids wouldn't learn.
But she is new to teaching...most people (unless they're perfect) make these kind of errors. I'm sure she is much better now.
Is Tara an American?
So cute how Tara treats the boy like an adult at 9:03 :D
She sounds Canadian...I'm an American teaching in London schools and get asked if I'm Canadian all the time. The accent is very difficult to distinguish, very similar..just a few different pronunciations in certain words.
Very silently...either you're silent or you're not haha
the pronunciation is not clear. never mind about the psychology
very helpful, thanks
That mentor is good. The lady that mentors the brown hair teacher.
5 minutes in and i cant cope with watching the way the poor kids are being treated. They are kids in school not adults in the military.
like aboot?
guys i go to this class!!! BRO
I didn't see any kids misbehaving. Just inexperienced teachers.
agreed. a pen cap is not that serious lol
Inner city London. No wonder. The society is broken. Why would you want to teach there unless you were desperate.
Lol... I'm a supply teacher... and really quiting after this term. Its year 1 and they listen but get too excited
couldn’t physically watch when she was holding his wrists
the brunette's behaviour management is absolutely terrible. I'm in my final year of teaching at Uni and she has nothing on me. just sounds like a nagging woman
So how’s ur teaching going?
The brown haired lady is far too negative. And her teaching is incredibly dull.
