On my first day of teaching, a high school student tried to bully me in class by sneeringly asking me, “Hey, what is your name?” His peers laughed loudly. I said, “Are you the teacher?” He humbly answered, “Sorry, I’m not.” He and the whole class kept quiet, waiting of what I would say next. I wonder if this is a good classroom management, and whether it is ethical. Any insight?
