I have a passion to help new teachers and those studying to be a teacher. I have written a book applicable to all grade levels and subjects. The title is: THINK YOU CAN TEACH? A SURVIVAL GUIDE FOR NEW MIDDLE SCHOOL TEACHERS. The book is an enormous help for new teachers. The book is $10 for 37 yrs. experience. When you are a new teacher there are lots of "surprises" during the year. The book begins when you first arrive on campus for orientation to the end of year principal's evaluation. It will help and encourage you to do a good job. Some chapters are: classroom management, yard duty, parent phone calls and conferences, lesson plans and more. Available from amazon.com, xlibris.com barnesandnoble.com and signed copy from me. Mail $10 to Classroom. PO BOX 36036 San Jose, Ca. I will pay shipping and tax. Any questions you can email me at: legendleon@att.net Thank you, Leon Avrech educator/author
