This review is from: Teaching Toward Solutions: A Solution Focused Guide to Improving Student Behavior, Grades, Parental Support and Staff Morale (Paperback)
As with Dr. Metcalf's other books, this one is a gem for anyone who is Solution Focused oriented. She provides easy to apply techniques for use with students, parents, and other teachers. She is a Master of SFBT and a privilege to call my friend and mentor.
