The Waldorf Teacher's Survival Guide

The Waldorf Teacher’s Survival Guide

Over the course of the school year 1989-90, Eugene Schwartz had the opportunity to visit over thirty Waldorf schools in North America and Hawaii. In the course of those visits he had hundreds of conversations with Waldorf teachers active in every grade, ranging from untrained beginners to seasoned veterans. This book is something of a distillation of those visits and conversations. . . . As a way of conveying the immediacy of these words, the author has couched them in a series of ‘conversations’ between his own mentor, the experienced Waldorf teacher Nelly Ann Damen, and Ken Rosen, a teacher ‘taking his class through’ for the first time.
