Review

'It is helpful at least now and then for language teachers to read a book on a key topic - such as this one - which has drawn on a substantially different literature than that which is normally consulted by writers in out field...Extremely accessible and reader friendly. Highly recommended' -
The Teacher Trainer Journal


''If you want to understand what makes for a motivated (or a de-motivated) learner in comtemporary classrooms, you could not do better than read, understand and apply the insights of Motivating Every Learner' - Scottish Educational Review

Product Description

'Teachers everywhere should read this book: I taught for fifteen years and would have given a lot for a book like this! It not only helps you to understand children and why they do what they do, but shows you how to support them in ways that work.

This is real psychology! It also encourages you to reflect on your own Teaching Style....and increase your effectiveness.

Could any Teacher find a more worthwhile read? I don't think so…enjoy!' - Amazon Review

Do you understand what motivates the children in your class? How can you help children to understand their own behaviour? And what effects can this have on learning?

This fascinating book explores the interactions between teachers and pupils, presenting new ways of engaging young people in learning. Alan McLean's very practical approach shows teachers how to understand children's learning stances - the modes of behaviour that children bring with them to the classroom. Linking this to specific teaching methods, he shows how teachers can shape their teaching to help children learn more effectively.

Chapters covers:

- What makes pupils tick?

- What pupils do to motivate themselves

- Understanding children's emotions

- What teachers can do to motivate pupils

- Personality styles and how to work with them effectively

- Children's learning stances

4.0 out of 5 stars A worthwhile read for all who teach, 13 Sep 2010
This review is from: Motivating Every Learner (Paperback)
This is an informative and practical book looking in through the eyes of both the pupil and the teacher. There is so much to take in that it will take a while to get a good handle on the messages. However, this is how it should be with 'reflective' practice. There are not many text books that I have read cover to cover, but this is one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Teaching Unravelled, 29 Oct 2009
By Ms. K. Johnstone "Ms K Johnstone" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Motivating Every Learner (Paperback)
I am a mature trainee teacher in secondary. At the beginning of my course I attended a psychology of teaching lecture on Motivation. Luckily Mr Mcleans ideas were outlined and I bought his book, the only one I have bought, because I was so intrigued by his model of motivation and learning. I was lucky enough to attend a lecture he gave recently and was further inspired by his profound understanding of childrens motivation and how to work with these in an enlightened way. I consider this to be a brilliant book and intend to use it as the guiding light in my quest to become a good teacher who would also like to enjoy my job! I think every teacher should read this and share it with their students as it engages crucial aspects in ones own and students development through self-knowledge and understanding. Its a relief to find a new model of learning and teaching based on compassionate leadership and makes me feel a little easier in myself about the job ahead.
