Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She teaches in the hall. She teaches in the hall. There you will find her changing “git” to “get” Pulling up pants and pulling down skirts Sharing a word of encouragement Scolding without words, just furrowed eyebrows. She wears her emotions on her dainty sleeve. Her heart on display that you may never question her motives She smiles when you cry and cries when you smile A help to whomever whenever. She is a mother. In her womb have winged creatures been conceived Some still being groomed, others conceiving She holds on while they realize their wings She lets go to prove they can fly. She puts all of herself in all that she does When no one is looking. She is extravagantly humble She is ferociously kind She is loved beyond measure She is Teacher and she teaches in the hall . Janiece Little, 2010

Book excerpt: In The Music Teacher, a penetrating and richly entertaining look into the heart and mind of a woman who has failed both as an artist and as a wife, Barbara Hall, award-winning creator and writer of such hit television series as Judging Amy and Joan of Arcadia, tells the story of a violinist who has accepted the limitations of her talent and looks for the casual satisfaction of trying to instill her passion for music in others. She gets more than she bargains for, however, when a young girl named Hallie enters her life. For here at last is the real thing: someone with the talent and potential to be truly great. In her drive to shape this young girl into the artist the teacher could never be, she makes one terrible mistake. As a result she is forced to reevaluate her whole life and come to terms with her future. Hall has crafted a thoroughly engrossing novel that examines the pitfalls of failure and holds up a mirror to the face of a culture that places success and achievement above all else.

Download or read book Deepening the Treatment written by Jane S. Hall and published by Jason Aronson, Incorporated. This book was released on 1998-11-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost everyone who crosses the therapist's threshold is looking for a second chance—a shot at living a richer, less restricted life. Understanding how echoes of the past resonate in and shape the present provides opportunities to resolve crippling conflicts and make new choices. Furthermore, such insight produces a sense of mastery. But not everyone is aware that the problems s/he brings into weekly therapy are just the first few bars of his or her song. Jane Hall wrote Deepening the Treatment to help the psycho-dynamically informed therapist help the patient recognize that exploring ideas and feelings is a journey worth taking and that the therapist is a trustworthy guide. Often, people need to wade before they feel comfortable diving into deep waters. Hall introduces a responsible if unconventional application of respectful, nondirective therapy, and she supports her vision with clinical examples and thoughtful attention to issues of basic technique—among them separation, termination, self-disclosure, frequency of sessions, tolerating patient rage, and, of course, interpreting the transference.

And the Pain-In-The-Neck who likes to write his name on the blackboard in snot? Yeah, well, weird stuff has been going on down the hall . . . . First of all, when Roger was cleaning the erasers, out billowed a huge cloud of chalk dust--and a chalk dust genie! And when the genie granted the Roger's wish to be the teacher of the class, Roger got more than he bargained for. Namely, he got himself--Roger--disturbing the class and making everyone, even himself, miserable. And Kenneth--that kid who hates reading? Well, he found a book that can tell his future. But he has to read it to find out what's going to happen. . . . Not to mention what happened to Rosalie, who always copies answers off of other kids' papers. Something was bugging her. A doodlebug. It just crawled into her ear and started telling her the answers to all of her schoolwork. It looked like she was never going to have to cheat again, until Mr. Leeks exterminated the classroom at the end of the hall. Then Rosalie was on her own . . . . The nine laugh-out-loud funny tales in this zany collection teach valuable lessons about teaching, learning, and life in a third-grade classroom.

Download or read book Wayward Daughter written by Sophie Parkes and published by Soundcheck Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eliza Carthy is the daughter of Martin Carthy and Norma Waterson. The clan has often been rightly described as folk's royal family. Martin was in Steeleye Span, Albion Dance band and the Watersons as well as holding down a successful solo career. Norma was a member of the Watersons folk group. Perhaps it was inevitable that Eliza would follow the family trade and become a folk musician. She is no pale imitator though, and can play just about any stringed instrument like a virtuoso, though amazingly she underrates herself. This self- doubt seems at odds with the public persona of a brassy northern lass, who has sometimes been described as 'difficult' (though not in our experience). Her albums are exceptional slices of traditional and new folk, but the stage is her natural home, enthralling audiences with a blend of folk, jazz, rock and music hall. 2011 saw her win two out of the three categories she was nominated for in the Radio 2 British Folk Awards, to swell an already bulging trophy cabinet. At 35 years of age it seems apt to chronicle the first half of an eventful life. In addition to extensive interviews with Eliza herself, the book contains interviews with her parents and other family members and also many of the people Eliza has worked with: Billy Bragg, comedian Stewart Lee, Richard Thompson Vandyke Parkes and many more were fulsome in their praise of Eliza when interviewed. She has toured America with Joan Baez. Eliza has an extensive collection of photographs that people have taken of her and she has been exceptionally generous in letting us use them.
