Talking
by Substitute Teacher
Nov 5, 2012
I am a substitute teacher (many years experience) who is too nice. Some people just have a certain aura about them and command respect whether it's out of fear or whatever. Although the kids really seem to like me they don't listen to me. I come across qas too nice.....they are not afraid of me and don't respect me. I can't change my personality. What can I do? One of the things that is very frustrating is the constant talking. I ask them to stop, I "shush" them constantly but to no avail. It's frustrating, humiliating and maddening! I can't be an Army drill sergeant....what can I do?
