The four types of students in every class and how to manage them
How to set rules your students will actually follow
The three most common teaching styles that will turn your class against you and how to avoid them
How to gain respect and influence your students quickly and easily
How to communicate with your angriest learners without losing your cool
And much more. This book isn't another dusty research paper that takes a month to read and a year to understand.
