Description
When Will They Ever Learn? is a warmly funny and poignant true story about a young man's first teaching post. Chris Walsh recounts his experiences as he navigates the probationary year, facing triumphs and disasters in equal measure.
The book takes us on a journey from job interview to memorable moments, as the new teacher finds his feet and a love life too. We meet the people who shape his experience, including a spirited landlady and the pupils who challenge him in the classroom.
This engaging memoir reflects a bygone era, when teaching was often left up to the individual teacher. With its mix of humor and poignancy, it's a story that will leave you chuckling and feeling warm inside.
