5.0 out of 5 stars Tough Love With No Blame, No Shame: Best Advice for Teaching, December 14, 2000
This review is from: Teacher and Child: A Book for Parents and Teachers (Paperback)
This book has the potential to revolutionize teaching by conserving the best advice for teachers and parents who feel the need for guidance that does not recommend despair or surrender to whim or impulsive action but provides daily strategies and methods that embody high principles with the utmost respect for students and those who work with them in building not just a basis for learning but a basis for the best in cultured, civil, courteous behavior. One example: when confronting a mess of papers, pencils, or wrappers on the floor or elsewhere, one doesn't say, "What a slob hath wrought! Or something similar. One says instead: "This mess needs to be cleaned up." Possibly with an offer to help. A book of tactics and strategy for tactful approaches to the need for the discipline that is so essential for all kinds of learning along with the mutual respect that is also necessary between and among those engaged in learning and in producing an environment where learning can take place.

5.0 out of 5 stars CAN I GIVE THIS 6 STARS?, June 30, 2007
By 
Anything I do as a teacher that turns out right can be traced back to something that I learned from reading this book back in 1976. Ginott's advice is dead-on, and though it is out of print, Amazon helps me locate old copies when I need them. I give a copy as a gift to anyone just getting started in the teaching profession. Haim Ginott knows whereof he speaks.

5.0 out of 5 stars A teacher's handbook for effective teaching with a happy heart, February 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Teacher and Child: A Book for Parents and Teachers (Paperback)
I only wish that I had found this book when I started teaching 35 years ago. Timeless, invaluable information for the teacher who wants to be effective in helping her/his students to be successful in and out of the classroom.
