Teacher to Teacher: (38 Years in the Trenches): How to Be a Great Teacher Donald A. Barlow

This book is intended first and foremost for all teachers and "teacher wannabes" who want to know how to improve their teaching, their student/teacher relationships, and their database from which they can draw an infinite amount of material. But, this book will be very interesting also to the everyday citizen, whether or not he or she is presently a student. The wealth of information contained in this book will explain to all why one class was very easy to understand, enjoy, and pass, while other classes were very difficult to understand, boring, and easily "flunkable." The book starts with a short autobiography of Mr. Barlow, showing what influence innumerable teachers had on him in his youth. Then the book will "switch gears," and enumerate techniques both inside and outside the classroom that help a person become a very effective teacher.
