Good for teaching by Tracy in PA (Philadelphia, PA)  3 Stars
August 01, 2009
I ordered this book as a tool for supervising students. It's been a challenge putting into words the work I do everyday as I do it without thinking about it, and this book helped me organize skills that I wanted to pass along to the students I supervise. For example, the book had sections on contracting, engaging, and ethics, all skills I use everyday but sometimes overlook that these are skills that must be taught. I found the book helpful although I wish I found a cheaper copy, not sure it's worth $75
