I just finished my loop interview for an EA role with Amazon / AWS in their Security Org but I have no idea what the base pay range is, much less total comp. The role supports 1-2 Directors. I have 6 years of experience. I asked the recruiter to be considered for total comp ranges of $100-120k. Any ideas on what range this would be?

If your admin. wants to show her face then include her as part of the group, because the scholars are aware that she is present, too. Ask questions like “who can tell Ms. ——- about ——? Periodically advise Ms.——- with comments like: “okay Ms—— this part of the lesson is——“. Thus helps the scholars to feel more comfortable, also.
I like this. Reminds me of way back when my principal would walk in quietly and sit in the back during my sped math class. I’d always draw him in and I knew he hated math. It was funny.
I would encourage you to incorporate the principal into the lesson as a participant. The student would love to see her and I’m sure she would love to interact with the students. This would also help with your anxiety. Even in face to face classes, anytime I have a visitor, I try to get them involved.
You can change your view and just view yourself so that you don’t see her
Correct. I wasn’t sure what method you use - whether you share your screen with a PowerPoint, have a doc cam and go through practice problems or something different. That’s just another idea 💡 to help take attention off.
I’d include a rundown of the agenda in the chat and tell her to chime in whenever she’d like. Maybe if the kids see adults talking pleasantly to each other, at least a couple would feel comfortable enough to contribute. My team teacher and I get a lot of student buy in when we are enjoying the content and talking to each other about it. Just remember to smile a bit, it’s really not that serious in the long run.
Put it in a Google doc and then copy/paste into chat when she arrives. I always use post-it’s to remember these kinds of details ... and of course to have the tab open to easily do and redo it if need be
In your pre obs, I would just make this clear about the group. Identify target strategies you plan to use and leave questions for your principal about ways to engage them! I did this when I was observed hybrid asking about ways to engage my remote learners. This is our full first year doing this, so it’s normal if it won’t be perfect, and admin needs to understand that! Just use it as an opportunity for growth and development!

Also, you can explain that she may be less of a distraction for students if her camera is off.
Thank you all for comments and advice! This is my first post. I love that this community is so non judgmental and caring. Cheers!
My admin always turns it off so as not to distract kids
You need to have individual activities for each I have a variety of word searches. Math puzzles book with pullouts. You have to keep them occupied so you can teach. You can also have buddies for the ones not so high.
I was observed by my administrator recently while on a virtual session. At first, my administrator did have her camera off but the student I was in a session with kept on waving. So I finally asked if he he noticed someone else on our call. Next my administrator introduced herself and explained that she was only observing me. Overall, my administrator respected me and my time with the student.
If you feel uncomfortable, just ask your administrator to turn off camera but students may notice.
Doesn’t matter and never fails that they show up right after your best lesson!!!
Absolutely
Yes! Talk to her first, get a dr note if needed
