Product Description
They called him Teacher this book is an attempt to analyze the teaching strategies, methods, approaches and philosophies of Jesus. It is not an effort to measure the teaching methods, approaches, and/or strategies of Jesus' teaching against secular thinking, theories and philosophies regarding education. It is not a step by step how-to manual on the means to transfer learning from the teacher/professor's brain to the student's brain. It is designed to portray not only what Jesus taught, but also how He taught it. He knew what to teach and how to do it in ways that are comprehensible to man. It is an attempt to help dedicated teachers understand the high calling they have because the Son of God allowed himself to be called, "Teacher". Carol P.

Customer Reviews
As a teacher in both public and private schools for over 50 years (!), I found the book on the teaching strategies and methods of Jesus in presenting lessons to be applicable in any venue. I could have used this book when I stepped into my first classroom in 1970! Each chapter supplied me with a fresh way to look at my own methods of teaching a lesson or concept but with scripture to support the delivery. The chapter on the use of questioning techniques is valuable, even in everyday situations! In short, the book not only gives Biblical approaches on how to deliver messages or concepts to students but also served to strengthen my understanding of scripture. I recommend this book to any teacher, any grade or subject level, or even to homeschooling parents as a way to present concepts with a solid scriptural foundation. I'm sure I will be referring to this book often!
