Would you like a fulfilling job where: - Your abilities are in demand?
- You can work or not work when you want?
- You can make a positive influence on the lives of children?
- You are paid well?
- Everyday is an adventure?
If so, then you may want to read my book and consider a job in the rewarding, challenging and never boring world of substitute teaching. Jam-packed and chock full of information, this book is all meat, no fluff, no joke. But how do you become a substitute teacher? What's involved? What's it like? Are you qualified? And how do you control the classroom? These and many other questions may be running through your mind; I know because I had the same questions. When The Boeing Company laid me off after working 23 years in Engineering, I began substitute teaching but had little training for the job. If I'd had a book like Substitute Teaching: The ABCs, it would have helped me immensely.
This 78-page book is for anyone who wants to be a substitute teacher but doesn't know what to expect. When I began substitute teaching I barely knew what to do as I flew by the seat of my pants. Now after subbing in dozens of schools and having learned the ropes, I feel confident that I can teach the nuts and bolts on how to be a successful substitute teacher.
Substitute Teaching: The ABCs takes readers step-by-step through the typical school day, from arriving in the school's bus-filled parking lot to checking out of the office at the end of the day. I've tried to include anything and everything a substitute teacher needs to know, using hundreds of illustrations.
All substitute teachers have their stories to tell; this is mine.
