Discover the teaching tools your university forgot to teach.
Teachers make the invisible visible, simplify the complex, and create structure in the chaos of knowledge. Yet, because most universities focus on training teachers for specific subjects, the key competencies of a good teacher are often overlooked-things like knowing one's motivation for teaching, finding joy in teaching, and communicating with students.
As a teacher, you are the key factor for your students' success. In this book, you will learn about the 'teacher's formula,' understand the importance of your teaching personality and grow your self-confidence as a leader. By getting to know yourself better, you'll also increase your joy in teaching. And with a little guided practice, you'll find the right approach to connect with your students in every lesson.
WHAT'S IN THIS BOOK (and what's in it for you...)?
The teacher's psychological tools are the foundation of this book. TEACH compiles methods of practical psychology gleaned from my professional training, applying insights from 7+ years of work as a coach and trainer for teachers and aspects from marketing, vocal training, and acting. Supported by John Hattie's study, the book answers the question:
How do a teacher's words and actions influence their students--both positively and negatively?
PART ①:
Essential Teaching Theory & Didactics covers the teacher's formula, subject-specific and general teaching, and the 5 teaching archetypes.
★ This will cut your lesson preparation time by 80%.
PART ②:
Your Teaching Personality considers values, self-perception, being in a good mood while teaching, and being the kind of teacher students will tell raving stories about.
★ So you also have concrete techniques at your fingertips to prevent yourself from burnout.
PART ③:
Psychological Tools discusses and demonstrates nonverbal communication, vocal training, gestures, media use, storytelling, and more.
★ So you know how to connect deeply with the hearts of your students and deliver true value to them! (always know how and what to say...)
THE BOOK WORKS BEST WHEN YOU DO THE EXERCISES AND WATCH THE VIDEOS!
FOR WHOM IS THIS BOOK USEFUL?
STUDENT TEACHERS, TRAINEE TEACHERS, & LATERAL ENTRANTS will receive concrete guidance for good teaching. They will learn the principles of good teaching and how to implement them in their classroom.
FOR WHOM IS IT NOT USEFUL?
TEACHERS who have years of experience via trial-and-error OR don't look for ways to connect with their students on a deeper level, OR don't prioritize their students above all (!).
