How to build a relationship?
- Having an emotional bond is important
- Effective communication

# data[].attributes.body
I would have to communicate with the fellow teachers and staff in the school, students, as well as the student's parents at school. I can attempt to actively engage and empathise with them in order to build an effective communication. That would imply that I would have to occasionally put others before myself.

Perhaps the 'how' involves being sincere and open? And also carving out time from the lesson to engage them or creatively using lesson time as a means to connect with them.

Some might be unwilling to open up, there might be a lack of necessary curriculum time to facilitate this getting to know each other better.

It would be important to build rapport and trust with them. Being professional and respectful would be key.

I'll need to communicate with fellow teachers in the same department or that I am working with.

students, colleagues, parents, school leaders. I can build relationships with them by learning more about them eg. their circumstances, needs and desires. Also communicating where I am coming from and the reasons behind my approach.

How should we (as teachers) balance personal views/perception and the school/department's goals
