Stars: 5
Review by: Saraswati
This book was part of the class I was taking and at first I read it like a text book and then I thought about it. What we say impacts so many people in so may ways. My family has sarcasm as part of our genetic code. Even when we cross a couple generations. I read this book and realized the impact of the sarcasm on those that do not have this gene. It really made me rethink how I respond to my students responses. Instead of, "What were you thinking?" I need to ask, "How would you rephrase this differently?" I didn't realize the condescending nature of sarcasm on others since it's just part of my nature. This book made me rethink how I provide feedback to my students and how I can improve myself as a person.
