The Teacher's Tao Te Ching

By David McDonald

The Teacher's Tao Te Ching: A Path of Presence and Practice in the Classroom

This is not a typical book on teaching.
It doesn't offer tips, checklists, or classroom hacks.
Instead, it offers something deeper: a way to return to yourself.

Inspired by the ancient Tao Te Ching, this modern interpretation invites teachers to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with the heart of their work. Each verse offers a quiet moment of insight-something to carry into your day, your lesson, or your life.

Written in a voice that is clear, calm, and compassionate, The Teacher's Tao Te Ching speaks to educators at any stage of their journey. Whether you're a new teacher, a seasoned veteran, or somewhere in between, these verses offer grounding, encouragement, and wisdom.

Perfect for teachers feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or simply in need of inspiration, this book is a reminder that you don't have to do it all. You just have to teach with presence-and trust that it's enough.

The first book in The Tao in Practice series.
