Review Quotes
I love it! Where were these insights when I was a new teacher? First year teachers, I feel, will benefit from the insights in this book.
30 Insights for the Thriving Teacher is an absolute must-have book on the desk of every new and not-so-new teacher. In fact, entire faculties should be required to study and practice every truth in this book. I have been a secondary teacher for over 40 years and have employed all the practices that Richards presents and explains, long before the writing of this book was conceived. These practices really work; I didn't understand exactly why they worked, but they did. Beautifully. Now after reading 30 Insights, I know the scientific reasons why these strategies were so successful in helping my students learn and retain information. Richards' easy-to-understand explanations and his strong voice and humor are what set this book above any other teaching strategies handbook. The teacher who employs these insights will definitely thrive--not just survive--in her classroom.
