The Behaviour Guru

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'Using a wide range of examples from the chalk face, Tom Bennett's book is informative, entertaining, and at times confrontational. His pro-active approach to behaviour management is based on his experience in and outside the classroom and is firmly embedded in common sense.' Julia Rowlandson, Education Consultant, Farnham, Surrey, UK 'Tom gives no-nonsense practical solutions to a huge range of classroom behaviour problems. This book is a great resource for all teachers - from NQTs through to HoDs.' Gail Robinson, Community Producer, TES Connect, London, UK 'Bennett has achieved something of particular value to new teachers; a jargon-free, unpatronising, highly browsable and accessible set of responses and suggested solutions to common classroom management issues...This is certainly a book that no self-respecting staff room or faculty office should be without.' 'a jargon-free, unpatronising, highly browsable and accessible set of responses and suggested solutions to common classroom management issues...if you want an instant answer without having to wade through pages of search results, other people's mis-spelled comments on the forum, or just a reminder that you are not alone in the big bad world of behaviour, you would do well to turn to this book which seems, like Mr Bennett himself (and perhaps that really annoying kid who sits near the back in 9X4), to have an answer for everything... a book that no self-respecting staff room or faculty office should be without... our Behaviour Guru hovers, like a guardian angel, ready to gently reassure, redirect and reintroduce classroom Zen.' Jenny Turner, Journal of Trainee Teacher Educational Research, UK 'This is a wonderful publication full of common sense and relevant advice for all involved in education.' 'Tom Bennett is the voice of the modern teacher. Everyone involved in education wants to be the best they can be, to do all that we can for our young people, and Tom gets 'us' as a profession. Teachers, and everyone who wants to understand how modern education should work, need to read what Tom Bennett says so that they can be inspired, informed and generally get more of a grip on the reality of how to function in a 21st century school. You will be a better teacher if you read this book!' Stephen Drew, Senior Vice-Principal, Passmores Academy, UK, featured school on Channel 4's Educating Essex 'This is a very good book indeed, both timely and necessary.... Bennett writes with humour, style, understanding, a massive amount of common sense and not a little wisdom. And how often do you use those words in an educational context?' * TES *
