2.0 out of 5 stars Okay, But Not Earth Changing, August 1, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Never A Dull Moment: Teaching and the Art of Performance (Feminism Takes Center Stage) (Paperback)
Maybe it's just because I've been teaching this way my entire life, but I found Felman's memoir pretty useless. As a memoir, it would be okay, but that is not how it is marketed. Her examples are "hard-won," come at the end endless struggles, massive amounts of self-doubt which, to be perfectly honest, are really second nature to anyone who is even a mediocre teacher. What sounded like a really cool idea ends up being a self glorifying mess of nonsense.

If you are brand new to teaching, _Never a Dull Moment_ might have some insights (if you are willing to dig for them), however, if you are already making a calling out of teaching, past this one by.
