Negative Positive
Title: Oh, please.
Review: I never once got the idea that: A. anyone's ideas other than her own (or her somewhat warped mentor's)were interesting or creative or true, or B. she even LIKED teaching these children. And while many of her lessons and techniques were good, they weren't original, and credit might have been given to the books, university programs or educators from whence they came. I found this woman among the most boorish in print. There is much to be said about enthusiasm and the willingness to go the extra mile for your students, but there is also something attractive about a little humility. Esme Codell--at least in this book-- has none.
Is the review positive or negative?
