## Description

Buy Teaching Today: A Practical Guide 5 by Petty, Geoff (ISBN: 9781408523148) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: Ideal book for those new to teaching - I was expecting a small, quick guide to teaching when I ordered this book. However....it's a beast. And it's better than I expected. I am new to the teaching world having been promoted to teaching new joiners in the organisation that I work for. This book has provided me with more than enough detail to be able to get myself up and running, with topics presented in an easy to follow format and examples of theories put into practice. I have only just got through chapter 1 but I am already looking forward to chapter 2.
Review: Great book on teaching, easy to read - I have previously borrowed the previous edition of this from the library. This is a good book on teaching written in easy to read style. This new edition is larger in size than the previous edition (length and width not thickness) however there is a white space around the text which could now be used for writing notes in. Bought this book as an additional book for more detail used in my PTLLS course, but I can see it will easily be useful for further courses.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ideal book for those new to teaching
*by S***9 on 14 May 2016*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well known in the teaching literature.
*by G***R on 8 December 2021*

Petty is well known to trainee teachers and educators in the PCET setting. It differs from other texts in that it provides practical examples of techniques that can be used in the classroom. From legislation, professional roles and responsibilities to questioning techniques, room layout and assessment for learning, useful for referencing the under pinning knowledge in practice. A great resource.
