Overview

How can teachers balance the needs of busy overwhelming classrooms with the needs of their own health and well-being? This timely book is about avoiding teacher burnout. It suggests that teachers can reduce the amount of time they work outside the classroom and still be a motivated and engaged teacher. Promoting a healthy work–life balance for teachers, the book advocates that teachers put their own mental and emotional health needs first; it argues that this will naturally lead to more effective teaching. The conversational tone of the book, along with a wealth of anecdotal examples, will make this highly readable resource an invaluable guide for every educator.
