Any teacher—experienced or not—will enjoy this honest and humorous look at the real world of teaching, and will come away with some very helpful ideas for classroom management.Rubinstein, Gary is the author of 'Reluctant Disciplinarian Advice on Classroom Management from a Softy Who Became (Eventually) a Successful Teacher', published 1999 under ISBN 9781877673368 and ISBN 1877673366.
