Recenzii

"Nathan Barber's book is full of insightful and practical ideas for how teachers can motivate students and build trust using the same tactics that coaches use to motivate players and foster teamwork. An excellent book for new teachers who want winning strategies and experienced teachers looking for fresh ideas."
--Todd Whitaker, Professor at Indiana State University, internationally-recognized education expert, and author of the bestseller What Great Teachers Do Differently
"Nathan Barber's book reminds us how complicated teaching is and offers practitioners rich portrayals of how coaches teach, and how teachers coach. In this current era of high stakes testing, the narrowing of curriculum, and scripted pedagogical guides, Nathan's must-read book offers a new kind of playbook for transforming how students learn."
--Barnett Berry, CEO & Partner, Center for Teaching Quality
"This thought-provoking book outlines a comprehensive yet practical approach for effective teaching in the 21st century. Nathan Barber combines the fundamental elements of sports coaching with the essential standards of classroom teaching and offers a clear, detailed blueprint of instructional strategies for emerging and veteran teachers, as well as school leaders. It is a must-read for all educators!"
--Renee Hauntz, Manager of the Leadership Development Department for the Dallas Independent School District
"As I began reading this book, I wondered what coaches might really have to say of value to classroom teachers. But this book is inspiring. It reminds experienced teachers about the principles of good teaching and the values that we all must continue to hold on to despite teaching in the age of test-driven instruction.It instills in new teachers the dispositions necessary to be truly successful with students. Do you want to be a life-changing influence in the lives of your students? Read this book and discover how."
--Margaret S. Thomson, Senior Lecturer, Department of Curriculum and Instruction at Baylor University's School of Education
