DVD Contents

Here is an overview of the video clips for your quick reference. The teachers in these clips often demonstrate more than one technique in the few minutes captured. We've named the main technique that the clip demonstrates first, followed by other techniques it also reflects. The technique called Control the Game is not mentioned in the Guide but is discussed in Teach Like a Champion. All these clips are worth watching on more than one occasion.
