Synopsis

Teaching can be a nightmare you can’t wake up from, or it can be one of the most wonderful experiences you can imagine. Whether it is a nightmare or a wonderful experience all depends on the educational tools you use. Mathew Savage shares the methods and strategies he’s found to be most effective in this guide, drawing on his two separate careers in education. Having been a teacher for almost seven years before working in the corporate world, he found behavioral changes that were significant when he returned twenty-two years later. The changes were not so much in the students as they were in the teachers and parents. He reveals what he witnessed as well as how teachers can eradicate many bad behaviors that have become commonplace in education. He also examines the growing problem of teachers who have been seduced by the government to raise test scores—even if it means cheating. Whether you’re a new teacher fresh out of college, a veteran teacher, a school administrator, or someone starting a second career as an educator, you’ll be poised to help students succeed with The Secrets of a Good Teacher.
