Overview

Ask any teacher about the meaning they derive from their job and they will tell you that teaching can be a tremendously rewarding career. However, if questioned about their first few years in the classroom, they will likely confide that it was an uphill battle. In many countries, up to 50% of teachers leave within the first five years of entering the profession. This staggering turnover isn't good for students, communities, or the people who invest their time and money training to be teachers. Having witnessed first-hand the considerable turnover in talent that characterizes the profession, a high school teacher asked himself a question: If he could hand a beginning teacher a collection of the most important lessons he has learned from the best teachers he has worked with, what would that look like? This book is the product of that question. Today's teachers must master an impressive range of skills, strategies, and micro-habits that are not necessarily taught to beginning teachers during their training programs. Filled with advice, commentary, and insights on topics ranging from job interviews to classroom management, this is an essential handbook for aspiring teachers, their mentors, or anyone considering a career in education.
