Hope and Help for New Teachers

HOPE IS ON THE WAY!
'I firmly believe that what will make you a master teacher
is not the advice I give you; what will make you a master teacher
is that you figure out how to solve those challenges on your own,
in your own way.’ –From the Preface
As a new teacher you face numerous challenges. Right from the
start you must learn how to manage a class full of restless
students; develop productive relationships with fellow teachers,
administrators, and parents; and design engaging lesson plans that
will meet ever-increasing levels of accountability all while
building a life for yourself in the process. It can be overwhelming
and sometimes you can feel like you’re all alone.
And yet, you came to this profession because you want to make a
difference. How do you juggle the demands of the profession and
find your own voice, your own teaching style, your own teaching
self?
The good news is that you can do this.
In this down-to-earth, inspirational book, bestselling author
Robyn Jackson offers encouragement and real-world advice for
navigating those difficult years as a beginning teacher. Sharing
stories from her own humbling first years as a new teacher, Robyn
helps you tackle challenges such as motivating students, planning
effective lessons, building relationships with parents, bouncing
back from embarrassing mistakes, and finding your own authority as
a teacher. She also helps you find success outside the classroom
with practical pointers for living on a teacher’s salary and
carving out time to have a life of your own. With candor and a good
deal of wit, she gently guides you to develop your own teaching
style and, ultimately, to find your own path toward mastery.
Robyn speaks to new educators as a trusted mentor, one who knows
how to navigate the tricky terrain of 'new
teacherdom’–and knows how rich and rewarding the payoff
will be. If you’re new to the profession or know someone
about to embark on a teaching career, You Can Do Thisis the
essential roadmap to succeeding as a new educator both inside and
outside the classroom.
