I like to teach things. When I went to my village, I had a chance to teach a few kids. I later realized what kind of kids they were and how difficult it was for them to understand what I was saying. Congratulations on the BOTD, and best wishes for future projects.

I read a sample of this book, and your review fully resonates with me! I agree that this is an awesome book for teachers and educators to elevate their teaching experience and deserves all stars. Like you, I appreciated the tone of this book that shines with enthusiasm and love for teaching profession, seeking to celebrate success of each student, no matter how difficult it may be to achieve success instead of getting drowned and bored in bureaucratic soulless checklists. I have always adored teachers who could light a spark of interest and achievement in their students, and this book is exactly about this!

Thank you for this informative review on "The Art of Education" by Lola Kay. This intriguing book offers incredible insights and tips for teachers to create a fulfilling educational experience in a positive, healthy, interactive environment. In the sample I love the following quote
"When we view challenges as opportunities, we become more responsive and more effective."
Teachers have such an impact on the lives of their students, let's make it a positive one. This book is on Kindle Unlimited and temporarily marked down to $2.99 on Amazon so I have bought this educational read for my daughter who is a teacher. Congratulations to the author for BOTD.

Each student’s needs are different. A good teacher recognizes the different needs of her students and addresses them. This book offers tips for teachers to create a beneficial environment for both students and teachers. The author’s emphasis on constructive feedback, classroom-specific routines, and behavior-specific praises is bound to create a positive atmosphere in class.

A teacher can have the most positive influence when their students know what to expect and that their teacher cares about them. How do teachers organize themselves to have this positive influence? Lola kay will show you how in "The Art of Education".

You wrote a good review! Yes, I agree! Teachers have a very difficult job and don't get the appreciation that they deserve. Could I have been a teacher? I doubt it. It takes a really special person who has a passion for it and the patience.
