WASHINGTON, DC - A short and snappy book on personal and professional development. MegaSkills Moments for Teachers®, by popular author and educator, Dorothy Rich, describes realistic scenarios in which everyday problems are resolved with positive attitudes and pragmatic advice. Dr. Rich is the author of the well-known “MegaSkills®” series widely used by schools nationwide to improve children’s achievement in the classroom. Her earlier books identified 11 “MegaSkills” essential to student success: confidence, motivation, effort, responsibility, initiative, perseverance, caring, teamwork, common sense, problem solving, and focus. In her latest offering, at the urging of NEA, Dr. Rich applies her practical strategies to situations facing the classroom teacher. MegaSkills Moments for Teachers is the ultimate user-friendly, self-help book for teachers,” says NEA President, Bob Chase. “It covers both personal and professional issues - and it's already flying off the shelves. Thanks to her strong following and plain-speaking advice, Dr. Rich has become the Dear Abby for teachers.” “Dr. Rich’s new self-help book is a valuable addition to a growing body of professional development resources designed to improve teacher quality and efficiency. In an easy-to-follow format, MegaSkills Moments for Teachers presents a problem and provides a solution using one of the 11 MegaSkills. The scenarios cover a variety of professional concerns ranging from classroom discipline to working effectively with parents. The author also bravely tackles personal issues, such as helping teachers beat classroom burnout.” MegaSkills Moments for Teachers can be ordered from the Home and School Institute.
