The purpose of this book is to help beginning teachers and to refresh veteran teachers of K-12 grades to handle many of the situations that confront all teachers and to guide teachers toward a love for their craft and their students. If you have been in teaching and are not as enthusiastic or as effective as you need to be, this small book will highlight the basics of the art of teaching. These thirty insights for new teachers will help the teacher navigate many of the issues that will arise during your years as an educator. You won’t find these insights peppered with fancy educational jargon. What you will find are realistic situations that all teachers encounter, and some food for thought on how to maneuver day-to-day classroom experiences.
