Keeping Up With Teaching
Strategies for Thriving in the 21st Century
Celia Di Iorio & Margherita Ghezzi
Keeping Up with Teaching is an essential resource for preservice and early-career teachers aiming to thrive in today’s challenging educational environment. Drawing on decades of combined experience, authors Di Iorio and Ghezzi provide strength-based strategies that prioritise teacher wellbeing, resilience, and holistic growth.
Each chapter begins with real stories from educators, offering an authentic look into the experiences and hurdles teachers face daily. These narratives then transition into practical strategies, helping readers identify solutions for managing stress, fostering a positive classroom atmosphere, and supporting personal and professional growth.
The book emphasises the importance of wellbeing, not only as a means to personal success but as a foundational element for creating enriching environments for students. Di Iorio and Ghezzi’s focus on resilience and reflective practice encourages teachers to sustain their passion and remain effective amid the demands of the profession. For educators in the early stages of their careers, Keeping Up with Teaching offers a compassionate, practical guide for navigating and flourishing within the teaching profession.
