Resumen del Editor

Do you find the workload of teaching unmanageable, and feel you can never turn it off and enjoy your free time? Do you have classes whose behavior you can't seem to get in check, no matter how strict you act? At assessment time, are you aghast as your students have seemingly forgotten everything you have taught them? When someone says “the Sunday scaries,” do you know exactly what they mean? Well, then, keep reading.

Sadly, almost half of all teachers will leave the profession within the first five years, overwhelmingly due to the reasons above. Many new teachers, once out of teacher training college, while armed with theories in pedagogy, leave without any working strategies and are left to improvise and learn the painful way through trial and error.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

When done correctly, teaching is a rewarding, enriching, and fun experience, while when done badly, it’s a soul destroyer. The good news is that the best has already cracked the code of effective happy teaching.

In this step-by-step guide, Malcolm Finney condenses 14 years of teaching experience and the hundreds of different techniques and strategies into the easiest implemented, most effective ones that will quickly get any new (or old) teacher up to the task of the very rewarding world of teaching.

In this book, you will discover how to:

• Manage your workload and enjoy your free time.
• Turn your classroom into a positive learning environment.
• Teach your students in a way that makes knowledge stick.

There is no magic to it. All successful teachers have learned these things one way or another to ensure a sustained teaching career. Some, like Malcolm, learned the hard way. Others listened to the best and got their happy place without the pain. Malcolm Finney invites you to learn the lessons from his mistakes and successes, so you don’t have to. Once you have nailed the basics with this book, you will be free to develop your practice from an effective happy place.

True and humbling

As a teacher I was excited to listen to this. I related to everything chapter and saw new ways to make myself a better teacher. Granted I work at a primary private school not everything talked about I am able to do. There is not as much teachers or support staff to help. A lot of the work is done through preping, lesson planning ,managing time and strict behavior rules. I do plan to use the tips I can , but I wish I could use them all. This is some of the reason I feel burnout after 18 years of teaching. The parenting styles are changing and covid didn't help. In my age bracket of children parents play a big role. I would love to hear this authors interpretation on primary school teachers. Overall this is a very helpful book, one that I would recommend.
