William N. Bender, Ph.D., is a national leader on the general topic of instructional tactics for the classroom, with special interests in discipline, project-based learning, technology in the classroom, differentiated instruction, and response to intervention. He is an award-winning author who focuses on practical strategies and tactics that work in real classrooms.

His work is firmly based on his experience teaching public school special needs students in eighth and ninth grade. After earning his Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina, he taught educators at Rutgers University and the University of Georgia.

For this book, Dr. Bender and his wife, Renet, worked with young adults in their church who are dealing with what he calls “broken and disruptive lives.” Teaching Through Trauma is a book for teachers who, in either religious or non-religious teaching situations, want instructional strategies to reach abused, neglected, poverty-stricken or undernourished children in a way that most teachers cannot. Expect to learn actionable tips on topics such as mental health, psychic trauma, social and emotional learning, classroom management, educational psychology, and more.
