Description
This invaluable handbook is designed for more experienced teachers in FE who have mastered the basics and are ready to re-visit their professional skills in the classroom. Written by two experienced teacher trainers with over 35 years of experience of FE between them, this practical guide is divided into three key areas: teaching and learning, working with learners and managing the learning process. Ros Clow and Trevor Dawn tackle key issues such as gaining learner interest, using role play, working with the individual learner, managing disruptive behaviour, juggling a busy workload, lesson preparation and team-teaching.
Reviews / Votes
"Ros Clow has done something quite remarkable. The senior teacher in Post compulsory education at Oxford Brookes University, has co-written a book about classroom teaching methods which, apart from being a first-class textbook, is also eminently readable. To get a good introduction to the ethos of FE you'd be well advised to read this book." Fred Redwood, Newbury Weekly News -- Fred RedwoodMore details
