From the Heart of a Teacher exposes the ugly truth about the current educational system in the United States from a man who was once the student no teacher wanted in their classroom but is now the teacher that all students want to be in his. In this breath-taking, eye-opening, "oh no he didn't" literary work, author Rodney Jordan holds no punches when it comes to the breakdown of American schools and all parties involved, which has left those who truly care about the futures of our children, scratching their heads. With refreshing honesty, From the Heart of a Teacher not only raises awareness of the ineffective policymaking, teaching, and parenting impacting the lives of our students in grades K-12, but also offers solutions on how to fix this crisis. Jordan, a back-to-back Teacher of the Year award winner in 2010 and 2011, brings the truth to light in this book from beginning to end, challenging all who are involved when it comes to student achievement.
