Training, placing, and retaining highly qualified teachers in our nation's schools has become a very serious challenge in the 21st century. Many factors contribute to teachers' relative levels of satisfaction, or dissatisfaction, with their careers. Some of these factors are rather obvious and tangible, others are not. Many teachers fade, sometimes rather quickly, from unmet personal expectations, overwhelming external requirements, and subsequent "running out of gas." Some of the very simplest things in a teacher's day can have the most dramatic effect on their passion for their work. To keep teachers fully satisfied in their positions, they need to enjoy what they do daily, to enjoy what they do daily, they must approach their work inspired. The Subtle Side of Teaching offers 79 short essays with examples and applications to a variety of school subjects, pointing teachers toward fundamental guidelines for sustained energy, clear thinking, and a positive outlook in the classroom.
