Education and Learning 1 Title may change This
tiny volume is a collection of short takes on
nurturing the independent learner. It is a
wonderful gift for the beginning teacher who is
too frequently overwhelmed by all there is to do
in becoming the competent teacher he/she wants to
be. The short pieces cut through the fluff of what
we remember or imagine teachers doing when we were
students ourselves and give concise, no-nonsense
suggestions for making teaching as manageable as
it is noble. I originally bought this for my niece
with good intentions, and wound up getting another
copy for myself. A veteran teacher, I still find
the reminders refreshing.
