The Diary of a Nobody! My Life as a Schoolteacher
Written by John Richard Hodges
This book is an autobiography of a teacher. I must first of all apologise that this story is not the story of a typical schoolteacher who has spent much of his life working in one school. I have been privileged to have worked in many different types of schools both in Shropshire and Worcestershire as well as spending time in Saudi Arabia and Cyprus. Having taught in Primary, Secondary, Colleges, and special schools for ‘EBD’ & ‘SLD’, I have been privileged to have met and worked with thousands of children over the years. I am always glad to say that of all these children, many of whom were difficult in so many ways, I never have come across a child whom I have not liked or enjoyed working with, even though in some cases this was a real challenge. I have also been privileged to have met some of the most dedicated and incredible people who have worked in the schools where I have been a member of staff.
