The Human Side of Teaching

Being the Caring Teacher You Want to Be

The book addresses several areas of the classroom/school community with which educators must deal as they pursue their dream of being a good teacher and colleague.

The Human Side of Teaching focuses on thoughts that give the new teacher a realistic view of the teaching and school communities in which they are entering. For the veteran teacher, it attempts to be a reminder of why they entered teaching and why it is a profession in which they want to remain. The book focuses on the teacher as a person, the role one plays in the classroom, as well as a member of an organization and a community. These areas of focus take the reader through the various levels of the teaching profession and offer both new and veteran teachers a focus on the reality with which they will and have been dealing. The writing at times is philosophical, seemingly ‘pie in the sky’ and at other times it is bluntly honest. In this, the writing gives neophytes some realistic aspects of their new profession as well as reminds veteran teachers, in moving through their many frustrations, why they enjoy (or wish teaching children of any age.
