«'The Computer Science Teacher book is a brilliant well written and thorough book outlining the practice of being a teacher. The book is a quick guide and gives just the right pointers and insight which I will be referring back again and again...I have found the whole book a very good read especially after my first placement. I can now relate and understand and improve based on the tools and techniques given in the book. The guidance on online resources is brilliant as well as class, lesson and pupil planning.'»
