Index

The book has been written for the PTLLS course, therefore it would be useful if every student had a copy. The book gives an excellent 'walk through' of the course for students to dip in and out as required.

This book is particularly useful for those learners who are truly 'preparing' to teach and have little or no experience in the field of teaching. It provides some practical tips on how to tackle assignments with ideas on what they need to know and be aware of when starting out in the teaching profession. It also makes the task of submitting an assignment less daunting by breaking down the criteria into bite size chunks and tackling each individually. Good for someone with less experience and who has perhaps been out of the habit of writing academic pieces of work for some time.
