The Bible for Student Teachers - Rated
I started off by using a library book but soon resorted to buying my personal copy. This book has lived on my bedside table for nearly three years, has been mentioned in nearly all of my esssays and gives me guidance and advice on my teaching.
I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Straight-talking, sense-making; its like the voice of reason on paper. Love it!

Good reference book for PGCE - Rated
I am doing my PGCE compulsory course which I find very frustrating, the workshops are full of terms and jargons with no links between the different subjects. This book can be considered as a well organized book written in a clear language giving good background with good links between the different topics. It is a book which can be used as a helpful reference text book you can refer to as you are doing your PGCE.

Teaching me to teach my students - Rated
This book features heavily in my ITT course at university and for good reason, it is packed with well written and helpful information for any teacher (not just trainees).

The book covers such topics as how we learn, questioning techniques, behavioural advice and assessment.

This is by far the best book I have read on pedagogy.

Really Good - Rated
I am studying for my Cert Ed. This book was recommended by my tutor. It is really good. It is easy to read & puts the point across simply & clearly.

Excellent book! - Rated
It is a great book for teacher's who are still training and also really good for those teachers who are experienced. It is actually written in an english which is easily understandable and it a pleasure reading it! I would recommend this book to anyone who is/or will be a teacher!
