Dave Burgess is a U.S. history teacher. His methodology is focused on hard-to-reach and hard-to-motivate students, incorporating stagecraft and a creative approach. We all know that schools are powered by enthusiasts. A teacher must be passionately devoted to their subject, inspiring, nurturing, guiding, and finding the right approach. And all of this happens within the strict confines of a curriculum, a mountain of administrative paperwork, and often modest compensation for their work.
This book is intended to inspire those who are themselves tasked with inspiring the most challenging audience every day: children. Dave Burgess has created a unique methodology for working with students. He asserts that any educator is capable of making students not just love their subject, but look forward to it like a celebration. He reveals specific techniques that will not leave any student indifferent. This book is not only about how to create unique lessons, but also about how to learn to take a creative approach to presenting any material and find joy in what you do yourself.
