 must-have Sep 19, 2009
Hougan's book is an absolute must-have for future teachers. I am currently into my junior year, pursuing a degree in Elementary Ed. and this book has given me a wonderful place to start thinking about the real classroom (since college courses never fully prepare you). Its a great reference and I highly recommend it.

 Good book to get you started Jul 10, 2009
I bought this book right before my student teaching, and while I didn't use it so much before my student teaching (despite there being a whole section dedicated to the pre-service teacher), it came in handy for what to expect during student teaching and what to do after. There is a website for the book that gives you extremely helpful information, such as the most asked interview questions, to help you prepare and land a job.
If you need some help with the unspoken "rules" of student teaching, or some tips to get a job, this book will help you. Establishing networks in bigger districts is a little harder to do, but those sections may work for smaller districts where there is only one high school, etc.

 Book is fine but need source of jobs. Apr 17, 2009
The book may tell you how to get a career in education but it does not point to available jobs. There are many websites that claim to offer jobs but it often remains difficult. At, http://www.educationcrossing.com you can find jobs dealing with this specific career field. At http://www.educationcrossing.com/ , they only have jobs from employer websites and offer far more jobs than other job boards.

So Simple Sooo Helpful WOW Sep 30, 2008
This book is a must have!! I always read reviews and consider what the reader says, well please believe me, When I say get the book. It is so simple to ready I couldn't believe the insight it gives and tips for Students, Pre-service teachers and Student teaching. I highlighted and tagged pages. I am very pleased!! Eric did an awesome job on creating a book for the "unknowns" A lot of websites and examples, book references. Again a very great book for Teachers to be, get it early.

Great resource Jul 05, 2008
This book came in handy as a student teacher and when applying for teaching jobs. I appreciated the strategies on how to jump-start my student teaching on a positive note by creating relationships with my students and CT. Even though I have now completed my student teaching, I will continue to use many of the book's classroom management and discipline tips in my own classroom, such as the question & answer box and bellnote activity. I recommend this to any student teacher."
