Description

Jam-packed with enlivening ideas to help teachers make the subject of English more intellectually challenging for students – and to make it fun too! This artful addition to Phil Beadle’s How To Teach series is the work of a man whose humility fails to hide his brilliance, providing English teachers with a sophisticated yet simple framework to hook their lessons upon. Covering poetry, grammar, Shakespeare and how to teach writing, Chris Curtis has furnished every page with exciting ideas that can be put into practice immediately. Each chapter presents a store of practical strategies to help students in key areas – providing apposite examples, teaching sequences and the rationale behind them – and has been accessibly laid out so that teachers can pinpoint the solutions they need without having to spend an age wading through academic theory and pontification to find them. Suitable for all teachers of English.

Author's Bio

Chris Curtis is an English teacher and head of department with over a decade's experience in education. Chris is forever reflecting on what aspects of his teaching work best for his students and, as an avid reader and blogger, is a big believer in sharing the practical solutions that he finds to tackling difficult problems in the classroom. Phil Beadle knows a bit about bringing creative projects to fruit. His self-described 'renaissance dilettantism' is best summed up by Mojo magazine's description of him as a 'burnished voice soul man and left wing educationalist'. He is the author of ten books on a variety of subjects, including the acclaimed Dancing About Architecture, described in Brain Pickings as 'a strong, pointed conceptual vision for the nature and origin of creativity'. As songwriter Philip Kane, his work has been described in Uncut magazine as having 'novelistic range and ambition' and in Mojo as having a 'rare ability to find romance in the dirt' along with 'bleakly literate lyricism'. He has won national awards for both teaching and broadcasting, was a columnist for the Guardian newspaper for nine years and has written for every broadsheet newspaper in the UK, as well as the Sydney Morning Herald. Phil is also one of the most experienced, gifted and funniest public speakers in the UK.
