Opis

The first edition of The Insider’s Guide for New Teachers was an accessible, engaging survival guide to getting new teachers through training and the first year of their jobs. The author writes a popular weekly ‘agony aunt’ column for the Times Educational Supplement and the book was peppered with illuminating anecdotes and authoritative advice that proved vital to new teachers, including sections on

• Choosing and getting on a training course
• What you have to do to get Qualified Teacher Status, including the skills tests
• Succeeding on the course – study skills, planning lessons, managing behaviour and being observed
• Looking after yourself and managing time.

Updated with all the latest information and advice, the new edition will be an indispensable guide to success in training and induction, and will take new teachers stage-by-stage from training to tackling their first job. It will look in-depth at the job hunting process, applications and interviews, ways to make the most of induction, and methods for managing time.

The author will promote the book not only in her weekly column but through other media outlets. As one reviewer puts it, Sara Bubb had become the ‘voice and face’ of the teaching profession on TV and radio, giving her many opportunities to discuss the new edition.
