I just started my new teacher assisting job and the lead teacher constantly says:"I never hold grudges and hold no animosity towards people because we have to deal with each other the whole school year" Okay, so why is it that while we are in front of the children instructing the children she calls out my clerical mistake in front of them and gets nasty with me about my not being on "task". Isn't this the wrong image to show children?I am an adult and I shouldn't be belittled by this woman in front of them, because now I feel they may not respect me. So my question is how should I go about this? I haven't gotten my first check yet, (its the only reason why I haven't hurt the lead teacher's feelings--yet)

I would also like to add that I am twenty four years old with a degree and deserve respect. I am much younger than this b****, but she can not continue to treat me like I'm her child, because for the simple fact that I am not her child or "a" child.

I would speak to her in private and tell her that you did not appreciate the way she handled the situation. If this gets you nowhere...she does have a boss.

Don't cuss her out, you will stoop to her level. Talk to her in private, tell her what you said on here. You're right, that's not the way to act in front of the children, she is most certainly wrong in doing this in front of other people, kids or adults. It's not professional of her and it sure wouldn't make her look any better if another adult saw what you are explaining. If you express your feelings regarding this manner in an adult fashion and she continues, go to a higher up.

I think you should be assertive, but passive also. You don't want to cuss her out, especially in front of the children because then it would be you giving them the wrong impression and they definately wouldn't respect you. Just take her aside and tell her that she had no right to treat you that way; especially in front of children. Don't let her walk all over you and treat you like crap, but don't stoop to her level either. If she keeps it up, go above her head and get it straightened out. Good Luck!

nicely, you're no longer incorrect with the help of asserting that. distinctive faux gentile human beings disguise their aggressiveness with the help of appearing like they're larger ethical agent than you and that's a demonstration of an aggressive individual. they're many times arrogant, innately spoiling to dominate others because of the fact they have frustrations of their lives. by way of improve in divorces and numerous social issues and rigidity. numerous human beings positioned on a gentile habit yet you may tell that they are annoyed and can be very aggressive whilst provoked. you ought to no longer choose human beings too plenty because of the fact human beings are decrease than stresses and the appropriate is to forget approximately approximately such persons.

I agree with Epona Willow on this one. Talk to her privately and be polite and courteous with your words. Are you considerably younger than she is? She may treat you that way because in her eyes you are still a kid. If you talk to her and she persists I would go over her head.

She sounds like a real witch. Be passive for as long as you can and then try to transfer or go over her big head.

Be assertive. Passive aggressive makes one angry and boiling a lot of the times.
Get to the point, be assertive and move on!
