The problem: I’m quite a strict teacher and have high standards in terms of behaviour, but I’m wondering how to present this in interviews. If you have your own class, you can do the “heads down” and “sanctions” stuff, but in an interview situation the kids know you are not coming back, so it is a lot harder to implement the expectations. Also, I recently taught a lesson in someone else’s class. The class teacher told me that this particular class took better to male teachers. Is that because their current teacher is male? They really tried to push the boundaries with me
