From Conception to Reality: Our Experiences in Authoring & Writing Books | Educators Without Borders

Educators: Have you always thought about writing a book but aren’t sure about where to start or the steps to take? Plenty of educators have wonderful ideas and experiences to share, but writing a book can be a daunting and challenging experience for the uninitiated. In this episode of Educators Without Borders, we convene four successful educators who have written and published books to take us through their experiences and answer questions from aspiring authors from around the world.

Panelists include Matt Rhoades (Navigating the Toggled Term), Étienne (Rock Your Class), and Serena Pariser (Real Talk About Time Management, Real Talk About Classroom Management). Hosted by Matt Jones (Helping Teens Succeed in High School & Life).
