Leading is a central part of the teacher's role, which involves working with students to achieve educational goals. To a large extent, a teacher's leadership ability - that is, his or her ability to motivate, influence, direct and communicate with students - will determine the teacher's effectiveness. This eBook deals with how the teacher, without formal training, can improve their techniques so that their performance and satisfaction will be increased. Teachers cannot lead unless students are motivated to follow them. The Unpolished Apple identifies actual classroom experiences and offers insight and many ideas on how to meet the challenges head-on and eliminate the problem. Some of the topics covered in this "must have" eBook include: roles and relationships; identifying your weaknesses; the planning process; decision making; handling complaints; body language; and many more.
