Talking to Teenagers: A guide to skilful classroom communication (Paperback)

The success or failure of a teacher rests on one thing: the quality of their communication. In the microscope of the modern secondary classroom, everything we say and everything we do is analysed by our teenage audience. 'Talking to Teenagers' is a practical handbook that explores five essential communication strategies. It provides busy teachers with the scripts they need to improve learning, and form effective relationships with teenagers. The complexity of that teenage audience and their brain development is explored, followed by how we can master the art of non-verbal communication. The book also deconstructs how teachers can proactively teach positive behaviour, and script their responses to challenging situations in the classroom. The acronym LEAP is then used to ensure that discussion and dialogue in the classroom is impactful: sharing strategies to improve listening, hone quality explanations, analyse understanding, and structure effective independent practise. Finally, it explores how we can drive motivation and build habits in the teenagers we work with. If you feel your communication in the classroom is often on autopilot, this book will fuel you with the strategies, phrases and understanding that will help you to be the best version of yourself in the classroom.
