Although new teachers are equipped with knowledge and competencies from their years of study, often there is a gap between what they know and applying their knowledge in a "real" classroom.

Written by experienced teachers who talk new teachers through the various critical aspects of teaching, the advice is practical and based on real classroom experiences.
