To teach with excellence can be a challenge. It demands more than strategies and techniques, discipline and dedication. The most successful teachers draw on their personal power - their confidence, compassion, and empathy - and their professional power - their ability to lead and instruct - to inspire their students to do their best. They recognize that teaching is an awesome responsibility. With practice, most teachers can develop the skills they need to conquer almost any classroom challenge. This essential resource offers specific, practical ideas to help teachers: Manage their classroom time efficiently; Educate with passion and enthusiasm; Support students who are struggling; Motivate with creativity and humour; Lead effectively both inside the classroom and out. There are as many different types of teachers as there are types of students, but all can learn to capitalise on their strengths and compensate for their weaknesses. Excellence in teaching is a lifelong pursuit; it creates students who are happy, self-assured, and eager to learn, and that, in turn, leads to better, more powerful teaching.
