"So, You Are a School Psychologist: A Guide for Interns and First Year Psychologists" by Dr. Jerry L. Turner

In ?So, You Are a School Psychologist: A Guide for Interns and First Year Psychologists? (ISBN 1469912597), Dr. Jerry L. Turner offers a practical, informative guide for interns and school psychologists just beginning their careers. A school psychologist of many years, Turner wrote the book after years of working with interns who lacked practical leadership skills, which he admits are sometimes difficult to acquire in the university setting.

Some of the on-the-job training offered by Turner in ?So, You Are a School Psychologist? includes tips on how to track cases, how to make recommendations based on student strengths and how to trust and hone individual skill sets. He also offers germane advice on handling advocates and attorneys, creating psycho-educational report templates and developing stronger time management techniques.

The book is packed with 200 pages of useful advice, indexed for quick reference. Turner also includes his 50 rules for better school psychology, a set of practices that have proven vital to his success as a school psychologist.

?So You Are a School Psychologist? realizes the role that school psychologists are thrust into as leaders in education. They are sought by parents for professional advice and trusted by teachers to make decisions that affect students? classroom placement and educational outcomes. Turner?s guide develops a systematic way of training interns and ensuring they bring a wealth of knowledge and skills to their new profession. It is a comprehensive book with training strategies that can prevent many headaches among interns and first-year school psychologists alike, when properly utilized.?

?So, You Are a School Psychologist: A Guide for Interns and First Year Psychologists? is available for sale online at Amazon.com and other channels.
