Teach with Your Strengths: How Great Teachers Inspire Their Students, by: Rosanne Liesveld provides information for someone who is looking for more knowledge on how to better themselves as a teacher, as well as someone who is new to the teaching field. This book helps the reader find their strengths and gives them ideas how to use these strengths that you have and learn how to use them within the classroom.
Teach with Your Strengths: How Great Teachers Inspire Their Students provide 5 chapters of information that include, “The Unorthodox Behavior of Great Teachers”, “Why You Are Who You Are”, Discovering Your Signature Themes”, “Putting Your Talents to Work”, and “Where Do You Go From Here?”. Rosanna Lieveld has included examples and ideas from teachers who use these ideas of “teach with your strengths”, which is what made the book stand out to me. Looking through this book a little bit to see what it is about has influenced me to want to know more about what the information has to offer, especially wanting to go the education route, I truly desire to know all the information I can get to be the best educator for my future students. Regardless of what level of education you are in I believe it is important to continue to challenge yourself in different ways to continuously grow and educate your mind as an educator to assure that you have the ability to expand your knowledge. To be a teacher who can offer so much more to their students than other teachers who stick to what they have always done rather than going out of the norm and building not only the strengths as the teacher but also their students as well, and just by looking at the key points of this book. I believe it could possibly help expand these ideas for myself and my future career as an Educator.
