This book guides teachers in creating a system of support and commitment to learning through collaboration, learning resources, routines and procedures, interpersonal relationships, engagement, rigor and mastery, personalized learning, and student leadership.”

Missy Hixson, assistant director and teacher center coordinator, Northwest Arkansas Education Service Cooperative

“John Wink has done it again! In A Teacher’s Guide to Excellence in Every Classroom, Wink provides a Hierarchy for Student Excellence that educators can use as a reflective tool to respond to student learning at all levels. Every chapter has ready-to-use exemplary learning tools and specific strategies for immediate classroom use, all supported by the latest research of Marzano, Hattie, and Jensen. What an incredible book! I highly recommend it for every educator.”

A Teacher’s Guide to Excellence in Every Classroom is packed with practical, powerful, and proven strategies to ensure a high-performing classroom and campus.

Martin Winchester, former deputy commissioner, Texas Education Agency

A Teacher’s Guide to Excellence in Every Classroom should be required reading for every teacher, building administrator, and superintendent seeking to create and sustain high-performing schools. Each chapter expertly builds the skill set teachers need to create and implement excellent instruction for each student in the classroom. This book is perfect for leading powerful discussions around instruction, reflecting on proven strategies, and creating a support system for excellence in every classroom. John Wink has hit another home run!”

Mark Terry, deputy executive director, Texas Elementary Principals and Supervisors Association

“If you are a teacher yearning for students to own their learning, then this is the book for you! In A Teacher’s Guide to Excellence in Every Classroom, John Wink advocates for classroom teachers who systematically challenge every student to grow daily. Blue Ridge ISD utilizes the Hierarchy of Instructional Excellence in Wink’s previous book, A Leader’s Guide to Excellence in Every Classroom, which guides administrative teams to systematically empower teachers and students to own their targeted growth goals. In this book, Wink lays out a targeted and specific approach to teacher self-reflection, planning, instruction, and ultimately, the student empowerment to own their learning.”

Matthew Todd, director of curriculum, instruction, and assessment, Blue Ridge Independent School District, Texas

“In his book, A Teachers Guide to Excellence in Every Classroom, John Wink applies a different lens to the strategies and processes he introduced in A Leader's Guide to Excellence in Every Classroom. He moves the focus from leading teachers to teachers as leaders in their classrooms and from the practice of teaching to ensuring the outcome of learning. Wink provides educators with actionable protocols and strategies to apply in their classrooms. He emphasizes building relationships with students to guide the development of learning experiences that meet the individual needs of all learners. Wink has once again provided a practical road map for teachers to follow that will lead to individual student engagement and success.”

Tylor Chaplin, superintendent, Burkburnett Independent School District, Texas
