Abstract My scientific essay is built from two dilemmas which I have encountered in my role as a leisure time teacher. I have treated these two dilemmas with help from my mentor, classmates and the literature and tried to find new answers and approaches to them. My first dilemma comes from my role as a team leader, the power that I have over my colleges and the conflicts that can arise from my choices in my staff team. My second dilemma is about how one of my colleges handled a situation with a student when that students did not want to go to the music lesson. The dilemma between the pedagogue and the student originated from the pedagogue´s will to adapt the students time in school to the rest of the class even though the student doesn’t have the abilities for it. My scientific essay begins with me trying to deal with the dilemmas that I have faced and if whether could have done anything different to achieve a more satisfactory result. Furthermore, I try to understand the conflicts that have emerged in my essay with help from different theoretical perspectives. Firstly, I look at how separation of powers in my dilemmas can be seen from a symmetrical relation between two equal persons. Secondly, with the premise from a concept of participation, I try to discern how positions of power can be expressed in a class of students. Thirdly, with the help of Michel Foucault´s concept of ratified normalization I will try to highlight how a school’s structure still strives to shape the students to fit the template designed by schools rather than allow the students to be themselves and trying to adapt the school around the students. Lastly, I try to focus my dilemmas on utilitarian and discursive ethics. Based on these two types of ethics I develop new approaches that in many ways have changed my thoughts and speculations regarding how an accurate procedure should have been carried out with respect to my dilemmas.
