A book about education I really like.

 

 

35 Trucos para ser un Profe Genial

 Paperback 

 Kindle version

I’ve bought this book these Christmas holidays. It’s got an appealing and interesting title. 35 tricks to become a cool teacher. Tricks?  yes,she’s right: we often need to perform tricks in our classes, don’t we? 

The author shares with us her 20-year-teaching experience in a secondary school .For her, teaching is a mixture of interesting materials, original ideas and, not less  important, a positive attitude towards life (both academic and personal).

It may not be a very long book, but I find it practical and handy.

According to the author, you can use nearly everything in your lessons; each object may have a second use (even a third). 

I really enjoy the personal aspect it describes. If a teacher wants to be “cool”, he should be active and really awake in class. Her ideas for a positive attitude have made me feel conscious of this: teaching not only means preparing our classes but also being wide awake and ready to face every situation in them.

Unfortunately, this book is only in its Spanish version. Let’s wait the author gives us an English version soon.

Hope you like it as much as I do.
