Abstract	Education activist William Ayers invites new and prospective teachers to consider the deepest dimensions of a life in teaching. Should I become a teacher? How can I get to know my students? What commitments come with me into the classroom? How do I develop my unique teaching signature? In his new book, "About Becoming A Teacher", Ayers muses on 10 such questions (and a little more) to shape and structure an indispensable guide that features hands-on advice and concrete examples of classroom practice, including curriculum-making, building relationships with students and parents, fostering an effective learning environment, and teaching toward freedom. This brilliant and concise text offers a conception of teaching as both practical art and essentially ethical practice. Book features include: (1) Specific strategies for becoming a successful classroom teacher; (2) Foregrounds the ethical and intellectual qualities of excellent teaching; (3) Recognizes the complexity of teaching even as it provides a map to achieve excellence; and (4) Accessible without oversimplifying the content and reducing teaching to something anemic and superficial.
