MEMOIRS OF A MEDIOCRE TEACHER
A book for teachers stumbling, struggling, and somehow still loving their job
In a world full of inspirational books about teaching, veteran classroom teacher Blair Clinton has come up with a dazzling memoir on how to be . . . average.
In Memoirs of a Mediocre Teacher, Blair describes his path to becoming a teacher—from childhood, to college, to teaching for over twenty years.
This book is filled with trials and errors (mostly errors) from his beginning years in the classroom, to embarrassing mishaps with science experiments, to thoughts about the state of education through the eyes of somebody just trying to survive the teaching industry.
Blair Clinton lifts up the curtain on classrooms to uplift the everyday moments of real-world, average teachers.
