This core text provides comprehensive support for pre-service and
in-service trainee teachers in the Lifelong Learning Sector covering all
they need to know to achieve QTLS status. Supporting trainees through
all stages of their professional development, the text takes the reader
through the theoretical background underpinning teaching and learning
and offers practical guidance on day-to-day challenges. This fourth
edition has been fully revised and updated and includes a new chapter on
teaching practice with notes on observation and lesson planning. New
information on behaviour management has been added to support trainees
in an aspect of teaching that many find challenging.
