Award-winning teachers outline their beliefs and practices as a teacher, covering key topics including:

- assessment

- motivating students

- planning courses and lessons

- teaching large classes

- reflection and feedback

- managing discussion and group work.

Illustrated with extracts from interviews with the award-winning teachers, and packed with activities and further reading, this textbook provides a set of principles for good teaching internationally.
