About
"Don't Wake The Teacher" is based on the author's
experience of a unique school that will appeal to
educators who will appreciate the special moments
and techniques used. The general population will
enjoy the many anecdotes and short stories
interspersed among the descriptions.
It’s entertaining, vivid, poignant and humorous, with a
'feel-good' sensitivity through a succession of
flash-backs, biographical sketches and photos.
'The book does several things for the reader. It is a
how-to book for good teaching. It shows how things have
changed in our education system. It makes us laugh. And
it leaves us with hope that others involved in education
are giving the same dedication to the teaching
profession. '
