Produktbeschreibung

"Teaching My Art My Heart" is really about a love for the profession, and identifying how precious, sacred and noble this occupation really is. It is set in a particular school but is easily transferrable universally. This work represents the spring board from which Williams has launched his writing career and it was based on inspiration of students he taught at the time. The book is about a teacher's philosophy and a deep desire to become a better teacher every day; knowing that teachers impact lives in a deep and indelible way.

Autorenporträt

Ike Williams was born in Jamaica at a time when the country was a colony of Britain. At the age of twelve the island became independent. These two cultures molded his world view and his inspiration to write. In high school his main interests were in history and literature. In Jamaica where he was trained as a teacher and a performing artist, he shared his time in the classroom and on stage. He was a member of The National Dance Theatre Company of Jamaica (NDTC) and was also the Artistic Director of Self Theatrical Company of Spanish that he and some of his friends founded after he graduated high school. In his early thirties he migrated to the Bahamas where he continues to teach and work in theatre arts in schools and churches. In his theater career he has written many plays and poetry.
