A Masterclass in Teaching - By: Dr. R. A. Keen, 08 Sep 2008 
I was fortunate enough to be taught by Geoff Petty when I was taking my Cert. Ed. It spoke volumes that, while other lecturers' classes were sporadically attended, it was difficult to get a seatin Geoff's classes!
This man is an inspirational teacher & it comes acrossin his writing, which is full of easy-to-follow concepts & examples. If you aspire to be an inspirational teacher too, or if you're just trying to find waysin which to get through the day a bit more easily, then you need this book on your shelves.
The Bible for Student Teachers - By: Kate, 10 Apr 2008 
I started off by using a library book but soon resorted to buying my personal copy. This book has lived on my bedside table for nearly three years, has been mentionedin nearly all of my esssays & gives me guidance & advice on my teaching.
I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Straight-talking, sense-making; its like the voice of reason on paper. Love it!
Good reference book for PGCE - By: Knowledge Seeker, 01 Feb 2008 
I am doing my PGCE compulsory course which I find very frustrating, the workshops are full of terms & jargons with no links between the different subjects. This book can be considered as a well organized book writtenin a clear language giving good background with good links between the different topics. It is a book which can be used as a helpful reference text book you can refer to as you are doing your PGCE.
Teaching me to teach my students - By: L. Minett, 06 Oct 2007 
This book features heavilyin my ITT course at university & for good reason, it is packed with well written & helpful information for any teacher (not just trainees).
The book covers such topics as how we learn, questioning techniques, behavioural advice & assessment.
This is by far the best book I have read on pedagogy.
Really Good - By: Paul Trevains, 30 Jun 2007 
I am studying for my Cert Ed. This book was recommended by my tutor. It is really good. It is easy to read & puts the point across simply & clearly.
