978-3-031-99173-8 (ISBN)
This book offers a foundational guide for pre- and in-service teachers, examining the evolving, multifaceted role of educators in today s classrooms. Organized into three parts Children, Teachers, and Parents it explores child development, the emotional and social complexity of learners, and the vital influence of family dynamics on school success. At its core, the book emphasizes the changing identity of teachers not only as instructors but also as educational clinicians, social-emotional mentors, and collaborative partners with families. By uncovering the true demands of the profession and dismantling the I love children myth, this text prepares novice educators to develop competence, empathy, and reflective confidence. It is an ideal foundation for teacher preparation programs focused on cultivating well-rounded, responsive, and effective future teachers equipped for today s learners.
