PREFACE
Introductory Course
PART ONE The Teacher
PART TWO The School
PART THREE Discipline: Its Province and End
PART FOUR Fundamental Principles in Discipline
Index
A concise, experience‑based manual shows teachers how to turn everyday classroom disruptions into opportunities for growth. Drawing on years of observation in both small rural schools and bustling city halls, the author distills discipline into a handful of clear principles that can be applied without overly rigid rules. The opening sections explain why a teacher’s own habits matter as much as any external policy.
Each part of the course tackles a different angle—teacher attitude, school environment, the nature of discipline, and the core strategies that consistently produce calm and cooperation. Real‑world scenarios are presented, followed by step‑by‑step responses that have been tested in actual classrooms. The language stays straightforward, making the advice accessible to novices and seasoned educators alike.
Listeners will find practical tips they can try immediately, from handling minor misbehaviour to addressing the more stubborn challenges that arise each day. The overarching goal is not only smoother lessons but also a lasting, positive influence on students’ character development.
