PHILOSOPHY

Teachers are professionals who deserve to teach in an attentive, appreciative environment where an education is the reward. The aim is to not waste time in politically correct jargon but to employ those techniques and strategies which work-in the REAL WORLD.

Classroom Discipline 101

Welcome to the Classroom Discipline 101 Blog.  I have been a teacher in the Los Angeles’ school systems for over 20 years, and I know how to get a classroom disciplined under any circumstance.

  • I have taught over 11,000 different secondary students in the inner-city and elsewhere around Los Angeles of all ages, abilities and ethnic backgrounds.
  • I have been a full time teacher, long term substitute or day to day substitute in over 80 secondary schools.
  • I have taught juvenile offenders in the Los Angeles County probation camps

- in other words I had to learn how to control my classroom fast or I wouldn’t still be a teacher.

In my Blog I write about my experiences over the years in the hope that other teachers can benefit from the techniques I have learned in order to get and maintain a respectful class each and every year. Because we all know when students are on task and focused they learn – go figure!

I have also written an eBook ( Classroom Discipline 101 ) in which I reveal the “secrets” I think every teacher should know in order to get control in their classroom for good. If you know of any other fellow teachers who could benefit from a quiet controlled classroom please send them my way.

Here’s to success in the classroom -
