I found this section interesting and useful. Why is it interesting? The reason is that for some strategies and advises to have better cooperation and relationship with teachers, I have already applied some, such as asking teachers how they want me to support in class, whether I need to work with one child or can go around and checking the whole class, and asking them what are the expectations for those students who need support knowledge or behavior management. In addition, I have already found out some ideas for some problems I am facing now. I think I will try it out, sketch out my plans, discuss with my teachers and see whether they will solve those problems. Thanks, Hoan
