The Behaviour Guru: Behaviour Management Solutions for Teachers

The Behaviour Guru: Behaviour Management Solutions for Teachers

by TomBennett (Author)

Synopsis

This book offers straight talking advice in a question and answer format on dealing with fidgeting to extreme aggression, and everything in between. Teaching isn't all about teaching; new teachers quickly realize that they need to be lion tamers too. Controlling a class isn't something that comes naturally to everyone - but it can be learned. This no-nonsense guide tells teachers what the teacher training didn't, and offers instant strategies for dealing with the most common, and extreme, classroom scenarios. Using his experiences of teaching in inner-city schools, as Behaviour Guru on the TES advice forum, and working as a nightclub bouncer, Tom Bennett helps teachers, old and new, to assert their authority in the classroom.

'Using a wide range of examples from the chalk face, Tom Bennett's book is informative, entertaining, and at times confrontational. His pro-active approach to behaviour management is based on his experience in and outside the classroom and is firmly embedded in common sense.'
Julia Rowlandson, Education Consultant, Farnham, Surrey, UK
'Tom gives no-nonsense practical solutions to a huge range of classroom behaviour problems. This book is a great resource for all teachers - from NQTs through to HoDs.'
Gail Robinson, Community Producer, TES Connect, London, UK
