Teachers Learn While Students Teach: Inspiring Hearts And Minds is designed to be a practical guide for student teachers, new teachers, veteran teachers, and retired teachers in order to use their exceedingly important gifts to help junior high through senior high school students feel more confident about themselves and their learning. Relating to students with different attitudes and dealing with the educational community can also be some other major challenges.
This book is very helpful to make teaching a joy, to minimize student behavior issues, and to fulfill one’s professional obligations in the best ways possible.

Steve Sonntag’s love for teaching and inspiring definitely shines. What I liked most is that he not only addresses issues/ideas, but also gives practical advice on how to deal with them, such as how to deal with students’ mood swings and not taking them personally.
