Fulton Books author Ken Rand, an award-winning college math professor who retired in 2015, has completed his most recent book, "One Student at a Time: A Teacher's Journey," which showcases memorable and heartwarming stories of a man's career. Rand shares his joy and fulfillment as a teacher in an attempt to reshape the lives of his students.
WOODLAND, Calif., July 27, 2021 (Newswire.com) - Ken writes, "'One Student at a Time' is a memoir of my extraordinary teaching career, including some of my incredible and memorable life experiences. My adventures in teaching and life are a roller-coaster ride of failures, successes, frustrations, and pure joy.
"The purpose of this book is to take the reader with me on my 47-year journey in and out of the classroom, from inner-city New York to the Bay Area, California, and from junior high school all the way up to a four-year university and everything in between.
"You'll read about Jacque Dawes, the toughest kid in the school, who undergoes a 180-degree transformation only to have a devastating ending. There are also the heartwarming and inspiring stories about students Dirk and Patricia who, against all odds, overcame their fears and setbacks and found a way to fulfill their dreams inside and outside the classroom. And get ready to laugh out loud while reading about my appearance on 'Wheel of Fortune,' where I tell an outrageous lie in order to get on the TV show, and then I go on to win three consecutive airings."
Here are some literary reviews by those who have already had an opportunity to read his book:
