Description

You've been asked to teach—but you're not a teacher.

Whether you're running a workshop, mentoring a new colleague, onboarding someone, or explaining how a process works, today's workplace expects professionals to teach—even without any formal training in how to do it.

The Accidental Teacher is a practical guide for people who don't have "trainer" in their job title but are regularly expected to lead learning. It's designed for team leads, peer mentors, consultants, specialists, and anyone who needs to communicate knowledge clearly and confidently in real-world settings.

You'll learn how to:

Structure a session that flows Explain complex ideas with clarity Use simple tools and activities to keep others engaged Handle common challenges like time pressure, mixed ability levels, or unclear expectations

Written by Dr Hayo Reinders, an internationally respected Professor of Education and author of 34 books on learning and teaching, this guide distills decades of research into fast, practical support. It doesn't assume you want to become a professional teacher—it helps you succeed when teaching is suddenly part of your role.

If you've ever thought, "I don't know how to teach this," this book is your lifeline.

Straightforward, encouraging, and full of usable ideas, The Accidental Teacher gives you the clarity and confidence to teach well—even when it wasn't in your job description.
