Last week I discussed an incident with a student, my response and my anxiety at facing the next lesson with this student.
So, as I promised myself I would, I began the next lesson with this student as I would any lesson. However, they clearly had remembered last lesson and were unwilling to work again.
Unfortunately this meant that I had to hold an after-school detention – something I had hoped to avoid.
I am hoping that the statement of an after-school detention is enough to persuade the student that this behaviour and reluctance to work during my lesson is unacceptable. I am yet to teach this student this week, so it is once again on my mind – I sincerely hope that this is all put to bed now.
