Wonderful book. Marva Collins' Way

I didn't know anything about educational theory, and I have
often throught
that worked in my favor. Without preconceived ideas and not
bound by rules, I
was forced to deal with my students as individuals, to
talk to them, listen to
them, find out their needs. I wasn't trying to see
how they fit into any
learning patterns or educational models. I followed my
instincts and taught
according to what felt right. I brought my own
experiences to the classroom,
trying figure out how I had learned as a
student. I remembered what had bored me
and what had interested me, which
teachers I had liked and which ones I had
disliked, and applied it all to my
teaching.

This is a wonderful book for anyone to read. It was co-authored by and written about Marva Collins. Her teaching methods were truly superior and inspiring. Give this book a try. :)
