#125: Q&A: Dealing with the class clown, when students gang up on you, and motivating unmotivated learners.
Manage episode 484952965 series 3396568
This week I’m doing something a little different – answering your questions! I asked over on Instagram what you needed support with when it comes to behaviour, and wow… you delivered.
In this episode, I’m giving practical advice for three of the big ones:
- What to do when students gang up on you
- How to motivate learners who refuse to try
- How to manage the class clown without losing the room
These aren’t fluffy hypotheticals – they’re the actual struggles you’re navigating day to day, and I’m so excited to support you through them. And don’t worry, these are just the beginning – if you love this format, I’ll keep them coming!
