In the classroom, what to do with kids which always make trouble? Ask a Question

2 Answers

I'll not go to any of the above answers. Following steps are needed:

0) Teacher should be professionally trained to deal with such situtations (every Tom and Jerry CAN NOT become a teacher)

1) Talk to kids in private to look into their personality

2) Talk to their parrents to sort out the problems

3) Get professional help (educatinal psychologists)

4) Graded use of soft and hard punishment, as needed (ask themselves, what punishment should be implemented on them, ask class, what punishment should be implemented on them)

This all works for me. Actually, if you know the subject, teach properly, and have a professional attitude, there are, almost, no trouble makers.

This is a professional matter. Deal it professionally!

The professionals involved have to be paid. $$$. Is it worth the cost?

Most of the time these incidents happen because the students think they can get away and there will be no consequences. Kick a couple of guys out and the others will fall in line. It works all the time

Yes it is worth the cost, else we will end up paying for it later jailing them.

Teachers should spend a little more time looking at what is relevant to their students, finding out how they learn best, tapping into their interests and letting go of their own agendas to teach students to think.

Relevance is the key. Schools can be SO content driven they forget that the learning process is more important and kids are willing to learn if there is relevance.

It has to start early. If you wait until high school before you try this, many will be lost permanently. And Sylvie has some good suggestions.
