5.0 out of 5 stars The quintessential educational tool!, June 21, 2001

By	"ajaye" (Westland, MI United States) - See all my reviews

I read this book in two sittings! Quantum Teaching gives you the impetus to implement everything you've not yet mustered the courage to try - and every reason to believe you'll be successful. Included are simple phrases to encourage better communication between teacher and student as well as strategies to promote a more positive classroom atmosphere. Everything in this book can be applied to any classroom at any level. This is not just a teaching reference; it is a teaching essential.

5.0 out of 5 stars Complete and Well Rounded, March 20, 1999

By A Customer

This book covers everything that teachers can always improve on. It covers from how to use the student's body to help them learn to how the classroom should look like! When put together in practice, it makes for a fun and challenging classroom that pushes both students and teachers to learn more. A great book.
