How to free yourself from a debilitating team-teaching trap
Ever feel like you're doing all the work in a co-teaching setup? Rachel, a passionate social studies teacher, struggles with Edmund's "old-school" ways. His fly-by-the-seat-of-his-pants approach leaves Rachel overcompensating and bubbling with resentment. What can she do to right the balance? In this episode we explore * what it means to fit together in a team-teaching trap * four different maladaptive relational patterns team teachers can fall into * what “negative grandiosity” means (and what “positive” — bad term — grandiosity means) * resentment as an incredibly accurate relational signal * the perils of “filling the void” Team-teaching adds a layer of work to an already difficult job. When it’s not going well, it can be debilitating. If you’re grappling with a tricky team-teaching situation, click on Share a Story and tell me about it. I can help!
