Even the best and most experienced teachers can struggle with classroom control and it is likely your experiences will vary day-to-day. Bestselling author of Learning Theories Simplified Bob Bates, together with former head teachers Andy Bailey and Derek Lever, offers one-stop support for all teachers in A Quick Guide to Behaviour Management.
Whether you are working with children, young people or adults it will help you:
· understand why challenging behaviour occurs
· learn how to be a great teacher in the face of challenging behaviour
· recognise a range of personalities you may encounter in the classroom and the strategies for dealing with them
Blending learning theories with real-life case studies, it fosters a deeper understanding of what causes challenging behaviour and equips you with all you need to know to handle it!
This book gives excellent examples of how to deal with the many challenges a teacher faces on a daily basis. There are plenty of tips to deal with various situations, and lots of great ideas to engage a learner’s attention. The authors’ knowledge and experience clearly underpins the practicalities of behaviour management. -- Ann Gravells
A Quick Guide to Behaviour Management is a very useful and practical book for educators who want to improve their classroom management skills. The content is clearly explained and easy to understand, making it suitable for both new and experienced teachers.
As I have teaching experience in India, I found that behaviour management in the classroom is quite different in the UK. I was struggling to manage learner behaviour effectively in this new context. This book provided me with valuable ideas and introduced different approaches to maintain the required environment in the classroom. The strategies are practical and can be applied easily, which helped me to feel more confident in managing my learners.
I particularly appreciated the focus on understanding learner behaviour and responding in a calm and structured way. The book encourages reflective practice and supports teachers in creating a positive learning atmosphere.
This is a helpful and relevant resource for anyone working in education. I would strongly recommend it to teachers who are looking to develop their behaviour management skills and create a well-organised classroom environment.
