Description

Real Teachers is an album of ten stories for revitalization  and for a return to the roots of education and the art of teaching. Grauer’s beautiful and compelling narratives bring to life lessons of incredible relevance, lessons embraced by all who aspire to be better teachers, locally and globally. In Real Teachers Grauer trades in institutionalization, fear, and formulaic approaches for individuality, perseverance, and the process of discovery. Real Teachers is a call to action based upon a larger vision of what teachers can do and where they can find enduring inspiration. Through this collection of true short stories, Grauer invites us into the history of his life, his discoveries—his road to growth that made him a real teacher. Sometimes with deep reverence, other times outrageously, Real Teachers shows how, around the world, real teachers are learning to love education again.

 

“This book is wonderful news, not only for classroom teachers and educators, but also for everyone who is fascinated by the art of teaching. I hope all teachers read this book.  It will help them to re-inspire the system, find their passion and stay in the teaching profession.”

– Paula A. Cordeiro, Dean, School of Leadership and Education Sciences, University of San Diego

“The point of Stuart Grauer’s book is to remind us that Great Teaching, singular, rare, unusual, is something that should be sought after and found. Thank you. It’s wonderful, timely, accessible, clear as a bell.”

– Richard Dreyfuss, Actor, Oxford scholar, founder of The Dreyfuss Initiative

 

 

“For the real teacher, the growth is in the plant, not the gardener. In his wise, lyrical, and liberating book, Stuart Grauer shares the harvest of his lifetime in education that truly matters.”

– Richard Lederer, author of A Tribute to Teachers

“Stuart Grauer adds joy, courage, and imagination to the dialogue on education. His stories add inspiration to our sense of possibility in education.”

– Vicki Abeles, Producer and Director, Race to Nowhere
