Zen and the Art of Public School Teaching

Description:

This book is based upon two assumptions. The first is that "we teach who we are," and the second is that one's philosophy of life is intimately tied to one's identity, and that it is one's "philosophical identity" (conscious or otherwise) that ultimately dictates one's teaching style and also what distinguishes those who find joy and passion in the teaching profession from those who find drudgery and simply pick up a paycheck every two weeks. In his book, Zen and the Art of Public School Teaching, Mr. Perricone compellingly invites his reader to participate in an introspective journey that is designed to help the reader better know themselves and the professional path upon which they have embarked. This book is for those who are just beginning their careers in teaching, for veteran teachers who are still very open to personal and professional growth, and to those who are thinking about becoming teachers.

I met this author at a conference. Loved his talk and love this book! It’s a positive, uplifting book for anyone in or considering teaching! Not a very long read but author provides great examples of classroom management, confidence building, and expertise he has had in his many years of teaching! As an experienced educator, I appreciated this book and will be purchasing one for my youngest daughter who is a teacher-to-be!

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the read!

Great book! Helped me refocus on why I became a teacher and become more self aware.

Dear potential zen reader, this book is well worth your time. It is a participation book, that is, the author compels you to reflect on your own experiences. On the one hand it is an easy read because it is a short tome, on the other hand it is challenging to exaime how you teach and conduct your life. This reviewer only gave it four stars, because I think precious few things are perfect, but I do recommend it highly.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good book to remind you why you are so significant as a teacher.

After ten years of teaching, my heart wasn't into going back in August. I'd had a few bad years and needed something to remind me why I got into teaching to begin with. This book did just that. I'm going to read it every August!

3.0 out of 5 stars Good read and clear message

Got it for a class, easy read and pretty concise. I like Perricone’s writing style. I would give it more stars but I had to read this in one day for a graduate class so, I can’t really say I enjoyed it THAT much.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Read (or gift) for Every Teacher!
