[quote=Anonymous]Teachers see kids with these behaviors quite frequently but all the ways of dealing with it are really predicated on building a relationship and that is tough to do in a limited amount of time as a volunteer. There is probably a whole lot going on for this child and it takes time to unpack. As a teacher I use a combination of one-on-one talks, casual positive comments ( or they seem casual but I am actively finding ways to say nice or friendly things to this student, finding things in common, asking a question about their hobbies, whatever) and cheerfully ignoring/moving forward, when appropriate. Really a big ask for a volunteer so I would do your best to make a positive connection but also give yourself a break if it just doesn’t happen in this limited time frame. [/quote]
