I try to read @ least 2 books every year about teaching. It keeps me current in my professional and if the book is good enough, it can spark passion back into my job when I have bad days. I chose this book for just that reason. In the end, the author gave a lot of advice that amounts to things I already knew. But sometimes, you need to be reminded what is and is not important. It especially contained a lot of advice about time management as it pertains specifically to teaching.
