What is To Be a Teacher : Voices from the Classroom about?

Mark Twain Middle School is the setting for this story of the year-long experiences of four intern teachers. Henry, Huntley, McKamey, and Harper, students in a five-year teacher education program at Trinity University, relate their personal struggles to become the kins of teachers they've dreamed of becoming. <p>Among the many lessons the authors share is how they struggled to know themselves -- to understand their own strengths and weaknesses, values and beliefs, knowledge and skills. With this new self-knowledge, they learned how to make better decisions about student development, teaching, and learning. The authors also faced the critical issue of cultural diversity and reveal how they each came to view diversity as a resource rather than a problem.</p> <p> To Be a Teacher speaks directly to the souls of teachers and teacher educators. New teachers will recognize kindred spirits, and veteran teachers will be revitalized with a renewed enthusiasm for their profession. Teacher educators who use this book as a course supplement will give their students a true taste of life in the classroom with all its extremes of experience and emotion.</p>
