Discover the teaching tools your university forgot to teach.
Teachers make the invisible visible, simplify the complex, and create structure in the chaos of knowledge. Yet, because most universities focus on training teachers for specific subjects, the key competencies of a good teacher are often overlooked-things like knowing one’s motivation for teaching, finding joy in teaching, and communicating with students.
As a teacher, you are the key factor for your students’ success. In this book, you will learn about the 'teacher’s formula,' understand the importance of your teaching personality and grow your self-confidence as a leader. By getting to know yourself better, you’ll also increase your joy in teaching. And with a little guided practice, you’ll find the right approach to connect with your students in every lesson.
WHAT’S IN THIS BOOK (and what's in it for you...)?
The teacher’s psychological tools are the foundation of this book. TEACH compiles methods of practical psychology gleaned from my professional training, applying insights from 7+ years of work as a coach and trainer for teachers and aspects from marketing, vocal training, and acting. Supported by John Hattie's study, the book answers the question:
How do a teacher’s words and actions influence their students—both positively and negatively?
PART ①:
Essential Teaching Theory & Didactics covers the teacher’s formula, subject-specific and general teaching, and the 5 teaching archetypes.
★ This will cut your lesson preparation time by 80%.
PART ②:
Your Teaching Personality considers values, self-perception, being in a good mood while teaching, and being the kind of teacher students will tell raving stories about.
★ So you also have concrete techniques at your fingertips to prevent yourself from burnout.
PART ③:
Psychological Tools discusses and demonstrates nonverbal communication, vocal training, gestures, media use, storytelling, and more.
★ So you know how to connect deeply with the hearts of your students and deliver true value to them! (always know how and what to say...)
THE BOOK WORKS BEST WHEN YOU DO THE EXERCISES AND WATCH THE VIDEOS!
FOR WHOM IS THIS BOOK USEFUL?
STUDENT TEACHERS, TRAINEE TEACHERS, & LATERAL ENTRANTS will receive concrete guidance for good teaching. They will learn the principles of good teaching and how to implement them in their classroom.
FOR WHOM IS IT NOT USEFUL?
TEACHERS who have years of experience via trial-and-error OR don’t look for ways to connect with their students on a deeper level, OR don't prioritize their students above all (!).

About the author

Christian Kressmann lives and works in Berlin. As the youngest NLP trainer in Germany, he travels throughout Germany as a coach and to speak at conferences and fairs, like Didacta.
He first noticed gaps in teacher training during his own studies in chemistry and physics at the Humboldt University of Berlin. Based on his extensive coaching experience in the field of communication and presentation for scientists, he developed a complementary program to enhance the skills of teachers: Sound Strategies and Practical Tips for Communicating and Interacting with Students.
Currently, Christian is writing his doctoral thesis on creative problem solving in chemistry education.
Christian volunteers with organizations such as Netzwerk Teilchenwelt, which educates students about particle physics. He also gives seminars for the German Epilepsy Association.

Dieses Buch ist so facettenreich, dass es eigentlich für das Lehramtsstudium ein unbedingtes Muss sein sollte. Ich bin Lehrer im dreißigsten Berufsjahr und durch Kollegen auf dieses Buch „Teach“ aufmerksam gemacht worden. Man meint ja immer, man kennt und weiß alles und kommt mit seinem Wissen und der jahrelangen Berufserfahrung gut durch die Schulzeit als Lehrer mit immer wieder neuen Herausforderungen.
Das ist leider ein Trugschluss, den man sicher erkennt, wenn man sich mit dem Inhalt dieses Buches auseindersetzt. Ich bin total begeistert und danke dem Verfasser für dieses Werk!



Reviewed in Germany 🇩🇪 on August 3, 2021


This book provides background knowledge and actionable advices. Which represent a good tradeoff to understand the process of learning and teaching.
It makes you feel like you are having a conversation with a fellow teacher making it relatable and easy to follow. If you're looking for an honest book about teaching that you can actually learn real skills to use in the classroom “this is the one to read“.
