Publisher Description: Our universities and colleges do a great job at providing general education but there is no way for them to prepare you for every school, neighborhood, region or state you step foot in. I taught in one of the poorest districts in the nation and had an amazing experience. There were many things I did well starting off; however, there were also countless opportunities for growth. After reading, you will be able to: - Identify important systems needed in the classroom to enrich classroom management - Relate to students of any background, no matter your outward appearance - Identify and utilize strategies to impact the lives of your most difficult students - Build student-to-student dynamics to enhance learning - Structure the visual appeal in your classroom to stimulate growth and achievement - Make content more relatable to students - Be proud of your decision to impact the lives of inner-city students Teacher retention is at an all-time low and it takes more than book smarts to be successful teaching our students. This book was written to give a real view of what it takes to effectively and confidently teach students in an inner-city school. Learn from my successes, failures and encounters as I share my story with confidence that it will help you and your students to be successful. |
