[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 458225, member: 844"] actually I have coached youth basketball but that is not applicable to this discussion. I am a HS teacher now and a good one IF the student wants to learn. If he/she doesn't then I am probably not but there are no real mechanisms for handling a student who is disinterested in the topic. Prior to teaching, I was in management. A long time ago, somebody told me all performance issues boil down to "Can't" do it or "Won't" do it. If somebody was in a job and had performance issues, they were coached. They either improved or if not, I had to decide if the issues was "can't" or "won't". If I thought they had done their best but was in the wrong role for whatever reason, they were demoted or reassigned. If it was "won't" do it, then they were "freed up to pursue other opportunities" and somebody else was given the job. But a "stud who was too cocky and didn't do as taught or coached" was handled according to the above process. I found that I had to do it less and less as time went on. You have to be clear about your expectations. [/QUOTE]
