Teaching Yourself To Teach: A Comprehensive guide to the fundamental and Practical Information You Need to Succeed as a Teacher Today
About this ebook
Are you a teacher who struggles with classroom management and lesson planning?
Alternatively, are you considering becoming a teacher and are looking to develop the essential teaching skills?
A lot of teachers claim teaching is the most challenging, and at the same time, the most rewarding job in the world.
Not many get the chance to shape young minds and influence people to achieve great things in life.
Teachers do... but it’s a hard road to travel on.
Most people don’t even realize the challenges teachers face every day. From lesson planning to dealing with problematic students and overbearing parents, teachers have to juggle various responsibilities all at once.
The biggest one, of course, is providing the best possible learning experience for students.
This particular task is extremely difficult--you have to be able to motivate and inspire a certain group of people every day while maintaining authority and making sure they understand the material.
It’s no wonder then, that many teachers feel like they’ve given everything they have and struggle to keep their students interested.
The education system doesn’t help much with this particular problem--most of the time, you simply get a curriculum and they send you on your own way. If you’re a freelance teacher, you don’t even get that.
It’s a blessing and a curse.
On the one hand, this cold-hearted system is hindering education in general, and leaving teachers to their own means can backfire and have serious sociological consequences.
But on the other hand, the system provides a crazy amount of freedom for teachers to do their own thing and be creative and versatile in their jobs.
This, of course, puts an enormous amount of pressure on teachers, especially young, new teachers who are only starting to find their own teaching style.
With the emergence of online classrooms and various virtual educational tools, teaching has become an art, and the teaching skills that were once valued before simply don’t compare in this new, digital world.
Luckily, some of those skills are still considered essential and can be applied to both physical and virtual classrooms.
In Teaching Yourself to Teach, you will discover:
8+ types of learners that will help you appraise your students and come up with the best teaching strategies for each one of them
Blended learning techniques that allow you to incorporate digital tools in your real-life classrooms to enhance the learning experience

About the author
The world has changed more than we ever could have imagined since the global health crisis. We are concerned not only for our education but for the education of our children. Selena Watts appreciates that both the way we teach and the way we learn has to change. All three of her books are dedicated to those who are passionate about becoming better educators.
When Selena moved to a different country, the only thing she could do was teach English. Even though she was a native, she felt like she needed some formal qualifications. As a mum to young children, she couldn’t go to university, so she began learning online.
Despite gaining qualifications in teaching and business management, she didn’t feel that her learning included practical advice on how to teach. Each course told her the importance of lesson planning, but it was only her experience preparing classes that enabled her to become the teacher she is today.
Selena Watts created a series of three books, Teaching Online, Teaching Yourself to Teach, and Creating Courses Online. Each one contains step by step guides using terminology that we are all familiar with.
These three books are written with such passion for her students, that Selena Watts inspires her readers to become better. They take the qualities that teachers have and enhance them. She has spent years testing teaching strategies and now provides some of the best methodologies to engage students so that they love learning.
