Reading your book refreshes my idea that I am doing a good job as a teacher. I have incorporated some of the ideas into my classroom with great results. I have used your book to help me see each day as a new opportunity to help my students succeed.

What a difference your book made Marjan! I teach junior school children (5-8 year olds) in Christchurch, New Zealand.
I have the question in “How am I going to make a difference today?” above my desk in my classroom. I am aware of my strengths and weaknesses like never before in my 13 year teaching career – all thanks to you! My children LOVE the Gotcha Awards. The bucket was full on Friday.
I am using them to reinforce their homework routines for Reading. It is working a treat! I am working hard every day to be the best I can be (our school motto) and I am more positive on my outlook. Thank you for your inspiring book
