Teaching by Heart distills the author's key insights from over 40 years of teaching experience. It explores how teachers have the power to both uplift and disappoint others. The book argues that the best teachers are also leaders, and the best leaders are also teachers. In his exploration of leadership and teaching, Thomas J. DeLong invites readers into his own thoughts and emotions.
