It also demystifies what the best teachers know and do instinctively to create students who want to learn and get a buzz from developing new skills. The book is structured in clear sections which are then divided into short, easy-to-absorb units offering clear, straightforward advice on all aspects of teaching including:

  • why teach?

  • helping students’ achieve good progress
  • planning, differentiation and assessment
