3. As a future teacher, what will you do if your student is always involved in cases of
misbehaviours?

If a student is always misbehaving and is always involved in cases, I would talk to this
student privately and I will ask why he is doing this and what benefit will he gain from it?
I will ask him to bring his parents with him or if he refuses, I will call them or maybe give
 a visit to his home. I will tell his parents of the behavior of their son and maybe get
some inputs from his parents and their son and then come-up with a solution on how to
deal with in a better way. With this approach, I will be able to know their son better and
act accordingly.

4. How will you “face” or dialogue with:

Unreceptive parents are hard to deal with since either they will push their own way, un-
accepting of my ideas, or just plain passive and never bother to really think of what I am
trying to suggest. I would be straight-to-the-point of the end-result of their child if not
given proper attention. However, I believe that I cannot change the parents but I can do
something to the child. This requires a lot of work from my side, since I need to mentor
her, maybe after school, especially if she is failing. This would entail knowing the child’s
psychology and developing certain corrective measures applicable to this child. This, I
hope, would somehow encourage her to learn even her household does not support it.
But still, teachers can go as far only. It is still up to the child if she really wants to learn
whatever the situation maybe.

4.b. receptive parents?

Receptive parents are easy to deal with because they are open-minded and accepting of
my ideas regarding their daughter or son. There is clarity of communication especially
the attention that the parents need to focused on to their child. I can even share to
them – in a positive and tactful way – my standards in my subject which we could work
hand-in-hand to achieve this goal. In that way, we can easily correct certain areas that
need improvement. Since they are receptive, the child would be given special attention
from their parents so as to help the child improved and for me to adjust, somehow, on
how to handle the child.
