The Stoplight Approach will not teach you how to be perfect or how to have perfect students; however, it will teach you how to be the most effective teacher you can be, and how to help your students learn at their maximum potential. The Stoplight Approach gives you tools to use every day in your classroom to help you get the results that you want, to help the students learn, and to help you be the best teacher possible. This book uses the simple analogy of the three colours in a traffic light — Red, Yellow, and Green — to teach about identifying emotions. This promotes emotional health, stability, and safety, which enables you to be the effective teacher you want to be, which in turn leads to your students’ optimal learning.
