"This is one of the finest books on teaching that I have read in a very long time, if ever.

thought-provoking new book.
Matt’s life was going well, but there was some unfinished business. His teaching business was thriving and tremendously satisfying; partly because of the new skills he had learned from Ray, the mentor who had guided him on his new path in life. Yet there were loose ends that yet needed to be resolved. Just as, one day at Jo’s cafe, Ray had surprisingly appeared, he had also, just as quickly, vanished.
