Hi my name is John and I am the creator of this website. This is the first stage of the redesign of teachermatters.com. Over the coming year I plan to add more sections and material to the site and I am always looking for new and exciting resources, so if you would like to submit a resource please use the form in the Contact Us section.

The idea of creating a central repository focusing on Classroom Management and Discipline started back when I was undertaking a Bachelor of Education (1991-1994). In 1994 I was introduced to Mosiac, the first browser that wasn't just text based, I was taken with how much images enhanced the experience. This is when I started thinking about creating a website containing key information that would assist me in managing my classroom. Move forward 17 years and I am still teaching, and still passionate about the notion of Teacher Matters.

In today's classroom, teachers have a lot of issues to deal with, so my goal is to simply provide teachers with practical down-to-earth solutions and support.

I am always open to suggestions and encourage feedback to make the experience more meaningful. So if you feel the need to provide feedback or simply want to chat please use the form in the Contact Us section.

Yours in Teaching
