Chris Curtis, Head of English, Saint John Houghton Catholic Voluntary Academy
As with his blog, and previous collaboration with Shaun Allison in Making Every Lesson Count, Andy Tharby continues to demonstrate his knack of decluttering and demystifying teaching. This time he effectively, effortlessly and succinctly sets his eyes on the English lesson.
Making Every English Lesson Count cuts right down to the quick of English teaching. Tharby painlessly gets straight to the important issues in the classroom and moves us away from the superficial aspects that distract from quality teaching. Using his friendly and approachable style of writing, he guides us through the principles of what a lesson should have and what a teacher can do to ensure that every lesson counts.
Great teaching is about making the unfamiliar familiar and making the complex simple. This book does just that and it is a welcome addition - I really wish I had had it as an NQT.
A perfect gift for an NQT or established teacher of English.
