Title mention in the Writers' News, 2007 * The Writers' News *
Having worked as a primary school teacher for more than 35 years, Hazel has seen many changes in the profession and is well-placed to share her experiences with those entering teaching for the first time * Writers Forum, 1 June 2009 *
...offers a down-to-earth, practical advice about all aspects of teacher training - from choosing the right course to surviving teaching practice and applying for jobs. * Child Education Plus, November 2009 *
It's filled with very direct, useful and practical advice about everything from parent interviews, through seeking promotion, to taking assembly and surviving Ofsted. Unlike most books of its type, it recognises that teachers have a home life - which may include their own children - to deal with. * TES, First Appointments *
This is a brilliant book and it seriously got me through my teaching practice. It is full of really useful and practical information and unlike most teaching books it is an enjoyable read. It deals with preparation for training, getting onto the course, getting through the course and finding your first job. If you are about to start your teacher training then you should add this to your bookshelf. * Amazon reader's review *
