Jesus - A Master Teacher

About the Book

Jesus – a Master Teacher by Roy Pitcher Synopsis for cover The success of Jesus as a teacher is both proverbial and fascinating – especially for a teacher…..but can his many strategies and methods go beyond religious teaching and be translated widely into the 21st century? That is the question Roy Pitcher asked. His positive conclusions are described in three parts. • An analysis of Jesus’ situation, decisions and methods. • An examination of seven inter-related social psychological themes evident in his teaching. • A translation and application to our contemporary scene of eight strategies and a planning model that can be applied to wide ranging age groups and areas of teaching. Its success has been evident in many contexts and deserves careful consideration.
