Help! I Keep Getting Mistaken for a Student
SHARE

As a teacher, it can be frustrating when students mistake you for a student or when they intentionally make your job difficult. In a recent letter to We Are Teachers, a teacher shared her experience of constantly being mistaken for a student at her high school. Despite wearing an ID badge and lanyard every day, she still gets mistaken for a teenager and faces embarrassing situations like being asked for a hall pass or being chased down by the school SRO.

The advice given to her was to consider wearing a blazer, as it is a professional and age-appropriate clothing item that is not commonly worn by high school students. Additionally, she was encouraged to address the issue with her fellow faculty members by sending out an email blast or bringing it up at a faculty meeting. By humorously highlighting the differences between herself and a high school student, she may be able to raise awareness and prevent future misunderstandings.

Another teacher wrote in about a student whose parent was suspected of doing the child’s homework. The teacher was unsure of how to approach the situation without causing conflict. The advice given was to reconsider the weight of take-home assignments in the student’s grades and to focus more on in-class work that accurately reflects the student’s abilities. If the parent continues to interfere, it may be necessary to involve the school administration to address the issue.

Lastly, a teacher shared her experience of feeling hurt when students made insensitive remarks about her body size during a school event. While she initially pretended to brush it off, she was left feeling insecure and unsure of how to address the situation. The advice given was to have a conversation with a trusted administrator to debrief the experience and discuss ways to prevent similar incidents in the future.

Overall, as teachers, it is important to address issues of mistaken identity, parental interference, and student behavior in a tactful and professional manner. By seeking advice from colleagues and administrators, teachers can navigate challenging situations and create a positive learning environment for their students.
