Inhaltsangabe

The Good Teacher highlights what are often overlooked in books about teaching—principles. It is about the timeless principles of classical pedagogy that characterize great teaching and make a teacher good at the craft. Rather than focusing on discrete techniques of teaching, this book delves into the unchanging realities of how humans learn, develop, and grow. The Good Teacher explores these ten timeless principles: Festina Lente (Make Haste Slowly) Multum Non Multa (Much Not Many) Repetitio Mater Memoriae (Repetition Is the Mother of Memory) Songs, Chants, and Jingles Wonder and Curiosity Scholé and Contemplation Embodied Learning, Liturgical and Poetic Docendo Discimus (By Teaching We Learn) Optimus Magister Bonus Liber Est (The Best Teacher Is a Good Book) Conversation and Friendship Teaching is an art, after all, and the liberal arts and the great books compose the best course of studies to cultivate human capacity and virtue that lead to a life of wisdom and effective service and work. Containing practical illustrations from every stage of school, this book also includes assessment prompts for becoming a truly good teacher. "When we write of the “good teacher,” we have multiple meanings in mind: 1) a teacher who is herself a virtuous, good person that students will imitate; and 2) a teacher who is good at the craft of teaching, who demonstrates lifelong learning. . . . She is a good model and a good pedagogue. In our view this is the proper order: Seek to be a good human being, then seek to be a good pedagogue. The first should lead the second."
