American Sailing and American Boating present their first ever teaching manual for instructors!

The Art of Teaching on the Water focuses on teaching methods that span all of our curriculum. While the book does not cover the specifics of any sailing or boating course, it readies the instructor to know how to teach each course well.

We cover the teaching cycle, understanding adult learners, examining teaching methods beyond lecture, strategies for helping struggling learners, and practical hands-on tools to make learning stick. This book will be used in future Instructor Qualification Clinics and can be used as a professional development tool for existing instructors.

Jenny Wight, author and Director of Educational Development for American Sailing, condenses her 20 years of working with various learners, both as a school teacher and as a captain instructor, to fast-track you with tools to vastly improve your teaching. Let’s bring research-driven education skills into the boating education world!
