Being a primary school teacher, I believe my classroom is a blend of Authoritarian and Authoritative styles. At times I have to keep them focused and attentive to the lesson presentations but when it comes to engage them to the group work / peer work I have to switch to the authoritative style.
first half of my lesson being authoritarian teacher helps me in keeping the students focused and second half of my lesson being authoritative teacher helps me in giving my students liberty of speaking, discussing and collaborating.
