You’ll gain ideas for surviving your first year, navigating social media as a teacher, interacting productively with colleagues and parents, using tech in the classroom, prioritizing self-care, harnessing your teacher “superpowers,” and even dressing for teaching success. The school setting may not be as glamorous as the futurist skyscrapers, alien planets, or alternate universes we see in movies and comics. But the adventure is just as exciting—and best of all, it’s real!
“They say that teaching is tough. Not here, as you will read this book with a smile and a silly grin. Shazam.”
HARRY K. WONG, Speaker and Author, The First Days of School

WHAT EDUCATORS ARE SAYING
WHAT EDUCATORS ARE SAYING
"Hey, teachers, this one is for you! Whether you are a long-time teacher or just beginning your career, Daniel Bergman has filled this book with accessible ideas to implement with all ages in the classroom. By reading this book, I know that Bergman’s classroom is meaningful, purposeful, respectful, relevant, and fun. Yours will be, too."
JOAN WINK, Ph.D., Professor Emerita at California State University, Stanislaus
“I’m not sure what impresses me more - Daniel Bergman’s extensive knowledge of comic book superheroes or his understanding and experience within the field of education. Regardless, he has combined both here into an insightful and entertaining guide for new and old teachers alike. Even if you don’t keep a grappling hook or a vial of Oceanic Repellent on your belt, you may have more in common with Batman than you think!”
JOHN PEARSON, Author of Learn Me Good and 2013 Jeopardy! Teachers Tournament Champion
“Teaching is for Superheroes is as entertaining as it is informative. Bergman’s wit, knowledge, and insight provide inspiration and support for teachers at all levels of experience looking to boost their teaching powers for themselves and for their students.”
TRACI EDMUNDS, M.Ed., Author and Former Vice-President for K-12 Education, Reading with Pictures
“Bergman seamlessly blends the two worlds of education and superheroes, making this a must read for novice and veteran teachers alike. Through research, personal experiences, and practical application, Teaching Is for Superheroes! will inspire all educators to never stop fighting the good fight for their students.”
MALLORY KEEFE, 2023 Kansas Teacher of the Year Finalist
