Review
'For many years this book has been the mainstay of students learning to teach in the secondary school, whatever their chosen subject area. The fifth edition has been brought up-to-date yet maintains all those elements so essential to those who are with enthusiasm, but some trepidation, attempting to grow into successful teachers.' – Gillian L.S. Hilton, Head of Education, Middlesex University, UK
'I found this book a great help in preparing effective lessons and developing classroom management skills. It gave me confidence and support in my placement schools. When I started looking for a job, the section on professional development proved really useful with clear and practical tips and I still use the book as a reference today.' – Fabienne Collombon, French Teacher, Dulwich, London and Secondary PGCE in Modern Foreign Languages Graduate, Institute of Education, University of London, UK
