My Fourth Year in Middle School: The Truth About Teaching (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781534875258)

My Fourth Year in Middle School: The Truth About Teaching is a riveting tale of one teacher's journey in transitioning careers and becoming an effective teacher to the students she serves. This book provides insight on how to cope as a new teacher adjusting to a new working environment. It richly recalls the obstacles faced teaching at-risk, African-American youth at a southern middle school for eight years. The author centers the book around her experiences and lessons learned as a classroom teacher. She takes time to express the difficulties associated with transitioning careers from military service to becoming a new teacher learning how to foster relationships among colleagues and students. The book can assist individuals entering the field of education not really knowing what to expect and create a discussion for new teacher expectations as well as motivation to continue in the profession while balancing your personal life.
