The Art of Teaching...What You Didn't Learn in College

About the Book

Although it is geared for the “newer” teacher, “The Art of Teaching…What You Didn’t Learn in College!” can be used by anyone interested in teaching or already in the profession. The “Art of Teaching” was written in the hopes that it will help teachers adjust to the daily ongoings – such as classroom management and paperwork—to the rigors—daily stress—involved in the teaching profession. These ongoings and rigors are likely not taught in college or expected by the “new” teacher. The book is full of “real” ideas, examples and activities that a teacher can use inside their classroom in order to achieve the highest level of success.
