Every teacher will tell you the first years are the hardest, and even the most confident of the pack sometimes ask themselves, Am I cut out for this?

Treleaven's blog has become a sensation in the education world, known for its heartfelt, high-spirited dispatches straight from the trenches and its practical advice. In Treleaven's debut book, she gives rookie teachers the advice she wishes she'd had when she started out in a large district in Houston.

With raw feeling, humor, and a razor-sharp perspective, Love, Teach supports teachers in their fight for a better future, and helps them celebrate the victories, large and small.

With so much emphasis these days on making students globally competitive and prepared to beat students of other nations on international assessments, and with so much talk about academic rigor and emphasis on rigid accountability measures, we are in danger of losing sight of the most fundamental element of successful teaching and learning — love. Teaching Students to Love Learning, Not Just Endure It makes the case that if we really want 'no child left behind' we must return to the solid foundation on which successful teaching and learning has always rested — the love of teacher for her students (and they for her) and the passion of the teacher for her discipline and her desire to share that passion with her students.

A heartfelt, hands-on guide to setting boundaries, increasing productivity, and finding fulfillment for teachers who know that their classrooms won’t thrive unless they do. Over time, teachers internalize myths about their success that cause them to fall out of love with teaching. “I’ll never be one of the 'perfect' teachers’” “My self-worth is defined by my students’ test scores” “The only way to get it all done is to work on weekends” How to Love Teaching Again kicks these myths to the curb and replaces them with practical tips to defeat burnout, overcome perfectionism, and restore the joy of teaching. As the CEO of Not So Wimpy Teacher, one of the most popular teaching resource brands on the internet, Jamie Sears has spent years designing tools and inventing strategies that restore the joys of teaching.

Drawing on real-life struggles from the teachers who have used Sears' strategies to overcome burnout and make the most of their time, How To Love Teaching Again will give you specific steps to stop drowning in to-dos and do the work that inspires you.

"In "To Teach, To Love," the great Kentucky novelist, short-story writer, poet, and teacher writes about his boyhood, his elementary school and high-school experiences, his days at Lincoln Memorial College and Vanderbilt University. He describes the teachers who inspired him, and those who did not, and tells what made the difference. With great warmth and the wisdom that comes from nearly fifty years in the classroom, Jesse Stuart tells of teaching in one-room rural schoolhouses ... He recounts his experiences as a country school superintendent and as a high-school principal and describes his stay at the American University in Cairo, Egypt, where he taught creative writing. He explains what classroom methods worked best, and why, and speculates on what has gone wrong in American schools today"--From jacket flap.
