This Is Your Own Time You’re Wasting: The SUNDAY TIMES bestseller from the hilarious teacher duo and podcast hosts, the Two Mr Ps

Product Information

The side-splittingly hilarious and heart-warming new book from your favourite teacher duo and hosts of Two Mr Ps in a Pod(cast) I have loved every minute of this book, from Show & tell to Pandemic (being a parent during that time.) to “o moments” and to everything else. I have nodded my head to all the parts I can see happening in my school or what I’ve been through. I have sniggered to myself and my son asking “are you okay?” To cringing and saying “oh my goodness.” Out loud 😂😂 I have no doubt that many teachers (primary particularly) will recognise many of the scenarios appearing in the book.

However, as it stands, much of this book *may* go over the heads of general readers - and I really do wonder if the manuscript was seen by an editor prior to publication. The anecdotes are numerous and entirely relatable, I could definitely add many of my own and it gave a real sense of comradeship. I also related to a lot of the points as a parent and a homeschool survivor. Like the original, this has the perfect mix of nostalgia and humour and discusses how the education system has changed, both in recent times and very recent times, through COVID-19. However, you do not need to be a teacher to appreciate the humour in this (and the previous) books. You will likely recognise the humorous stories and one-off lines from your school. I know that I recall the days when the TV was wheeled into the classroom and the teacher then struggled for 10-15 minutes to get reception (there were only 3 channels at the time).Better than book 1 'Put a wet paper towel on it'. This has a serious end looking at how the brothers think education system could be improved post covid. On a serious note the chapter on the pandemic was very touching as again it summed up everything that educators experienced during a very stressful time. Overall though, an utterly brilliant follow up to the original and I almost enjoyed it more. I also loved your unique take and opinions on life and wholeheartedly agreed with your stances throughout.

Some practices adopted during the pandemic, such as the introduction of digital teaching platforms, have led to positive changes in education; however, resistance remains. I’ve been teaching for 21 years in an infant setting. I must say you have made me laugh so much - doubled up on occasions! The side-splittingly hilarious and heart-warming book from your favourite teacher duo and hosts of Two Mr Ps in a Pod(cast)As a Primary School teacher I was intrigued to read this book - I am only glad I received a review copy and didn't have to buy it as it would have been money I felt cheated of. This is an entertaining read that also makes some salient points around education, and can be enjoyed by educators and parents alike. Lee and Adam are a delight, both in audio and text, I can wholeheartedly say this book isn't to be missed, even if you've not read the first book or don't teach or have kids.
