Is it okay if I tape this conversation?

For obvious reasons, I can't get into details, but oh ladie, it was a week!

I was in a meeting this afternoon during which my student teacher made the statement above. Honestly I was fine with the conversation being taped. But, wow, don't know if I would ever have the balls to walk in and say that. Again, can't really get into it, but she has demonstrated some serious boundary issues as well as poor planning and has not done a great job in the classroom. All in all having a student teacher, has not been what I expected.

This is actually my second student teacher. The first guy was nice enough, but he had no intention of teaching. He was getting a degree in special education and then was going to school for school psychology. Again, nice guy, did a fine job, but felt a bit like a waste of my time.

But this, this has been something else all together. But she will be teaching next week. And I will be writing more often, shouldn't be too hard.
