Author(s): Jane Vella

Education

"Vella writes persuasively about the power of listening as the predominant tool for effective teaching.... This is a book that broadens cultural horizons, tears down superficial boundaries, and presents excellent practical ideas for all adult educators."
--NACADA Journal

"Anyone who wants to help make the world a better place should read this book. Jane Vella is an educator par excellence. But the message of this book is not for academics; it is for the people who will help things change on the ground. This book is about reality--real people, real situations, and what I call real development."
--James P. Grant, executive director, UNICEF

In a distinctly personal and highly entertaining style, Jane Vella reveals twelve basic principles of adult learning to offer a practical, proven, universally applicable approach to adult education.
