Help students reach their full potential

Effect lasting life change

“For some time I have said to myself, ‘Much of what I am doing in the classroom is a waste of time. I can’t continue this career unless I can make a more significant contribution in the lives of my students.’ The Seven Laws of the Learner was the answer to my need.”

Seminary professor

Portland , Oregon

“For years I filled my students with content. But since learning the seven laws, my life and teaching have not been the same. Now teaching for life change and revival are becoming second nature.”

Businessman, adult Sunday school teacher

Orange , California

Story Behind the Book

Bruce Wilkinson had received thousands of requests for a book about how people learn. Having taught teachers all over the world, he developed the Seven Laws as the basis of his teaching workshops.

4.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding resource for both spiritual and secular teachers, November 17, 1998

This review is from: The Seven Laws of the Learner: How to Teach Almost Anything to Practically Anyone (Hardcover)
We have been taught how to teach incorrectly. This book gives us the basic principles necessary to teach, not only Sunday school, but any subject that someone needs to learn. These principles are timeless and foundational to every classroom setting.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you are a teacher, get this . . . now!, November 3, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Seven Laws of the Learner: How to Teach Almost Anything to Practically Anyone (Hardcover)
I graduated from seminary, but didn't know how to teach the information I had learned. Dr. Wilkinson has outdone himself with the 7 Laws of the Learner. If you want to teach so that your students will walk out of your class knowing how to apply what you've taught to their life, this is a must. Don't just teach information -- teach people what to do with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book for all, October 18, 2004
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Seven Laws of the Learner: How to Teach Almost Anything to Practically Anyone (Hardcover)
As someone who sat under Bruce Wilkinson during his college classes, I really wanted to read this book. It's not that I'm a teacher now, but I serve in a project management role.

A lot of the information taught in this book relates to working with people. Some of the information I need is from my technical staff - my role in learning. Some of the information I need is to be taught to the everyday user - the my role in teaching. While "Loving your students unconditionally" may not apply in the real world, it actually does.

I find my co-workers respond better to someone who cares about them then by someone who is just doing the work.

A must read book!
