Martin Beer is one of the few men who has ventured into teaching at the elementary school level - and he wants to change that: "Young men, flock to elementary schools! Embrace the funniest and most varied profession in the world. Arm yourselves with zigzag scissors and glue sticks, and collect Panini stickers instead of mutual funds." But this ultimate guide also has a lot to offer for all (aspiring) female elementary school teachers: The first part is autobiographical, detailing Beer’s fixed idea of studying elementary education, his shared studies with 110 women, and his early years in completely male-free faculties, as well as the children whose wit and behavior continually astonish. The second part addresses all elementary school-related topics from "A for sound tables" to "Z for fidgety Philip.".
