Rating: 5/5
Classroom Confidential is a book written by the author Victoria Lucido. It is based on how she survived 33 years in a public school and others can too. This book covers Victoria’s teaching journey that started in 1985. As a new teacher, she needed some help. When she went to the head teacher for help, she didn’t receive it. This incident made Victoria helpful towards other teachers because she knew how it feels when you are new and you are not receiving any help.
I liked the way author learnt to relax and cope up with things in panic situations. Survival secrets shared in this book gonna be helpful for new teachers. Even though I am not an educator but I liked this book as it gave me some nice tips like while traveling we should dress according to the country we are visiting, while teaching our outfit should give the message that we are in the campus for teaching but also approachable. In this way, students could connect more to teachers.
Tips for fitting in the staff lounge are much needed by new teachers because they don’t know how they will be welcomed by other teachers. Tips for creating community will help a teacher to have good connection in the world outside of school. The boundary suggestions mentioned in the book has great value and I like to thanks the author for sharing that. This book is written in a simple language but it is written as a result of author’s rich experience and will prove to be helpful for new teachers. Her analysis of different situations and the way she has handled them over years has helped her to write this book. Cover photo of the book is lovely and it gave me the vibes of green board of the classroom. Title of the book couldn’t have been better than this.
Overall, I strongly recommend this book to everyone especially to the new teachers.
