Summary

Fed up with students who talk over you and ignore instructions?

Drained and worn out by disruption, disobedience, and defiance?

Does the thought of facing some groups fill you with utter dread?

Drawing on 20+ years experience in special education and mainstream settings, teacher-trainer Rob Plevin explains a proven, step-by-step plan for successfully managing the most challenging individuals and groups in today’s toughest classrooms. Packed with powerful, fast-acting techniques - including a novel routine to get any class quiet in 15 seconds or less - this audiobook helps teachers across all age groups connect and succeed with hard-to-reach, reluctant learners. 

You’ll discover:

The simple six-step plan to minimise & deal with classroom behaviour problems

How to gain trust & respect from tough, hard-to-reach students

How to put an end to power struggles & confrontation

How to have students follow your instructions… with no need to repeat yourself

The crucial importance of consistency (and how to achieve it)

Quick and easy ways to raise engagement and enjoyment in your lessons

The ‘Clean Slate’ – a step by step method you can use to ‘start over’ with that particularly difficult group of students who won’t do anything you say.

Take Control of the Noisy Class provides hundreds of practical ideas and interventions to end your classroom management struggles & create a thoroughly enjoyable lesson climate for all concerned.

Can't wait to put what I've learnt into practice

This was a great audiobook. I listened to it on the way to work each day.
It was a great way to take in the whole book and I'd highly recommend.
I will now be getting a physical copy of the book so I can annotate and refer back to the key points / dip in and out of.
My only issue is that with currently remote teaching due to COVID I can't put all I've learnt into practice. I'm looking forward to being back in the classroom with my Noisy Classes, so I can take control and turn any Chaos into Calm !

Great advice on the go

It was great to be able to listen to sound advice whilst walking. It allowed me to have a renewed perspective on the work Rob has achieved and shared in the past. Thank you

Some great ideas to test out

A great book for ideas that you can try out in the classroom. Just wish I had a paper copy so I could tag all the suggestions! It’s like sharing nuggets of wisdom from tested ideas.

Timely instructions

A easy to follow, manageable read with great easy to implement ideas. Some are common sense but some fabulous new initiatives to put it to practice.

Invaluable tips on behaviour management

I have gained invaluable tips from listening to Rob Plevin's audio book which I find easily accessible. I must say that I did not expect the audio to be over 5 hours long. However, since I have read the book, I made use of the buttons on the audio player.
What I found interesting is the way you have highlighted strategies for curtailing disruptive behaviour including seeking 'coded support' from colleagues... this I found really hilarious which, I understand, might turn out to be a saving grace for some teachers. You have not only included support strategies based on whole school, classroom or individual interventions but you have also included advice which teachers can strategically use to summon support from parent/carers. Enlisting the support of parents some may shy from but which if taken on board, can really make a difference. Thank you so much for all the effort you've put into making all of these tips easily accessible in audio.

old and unhelpful

Nothing new, again. I'm so tired of the same old advice from people who dont seem to know what a real classroom is like in a real school.
