Basically what this guy is selling is the idea that if the rules mentioned in his taxonomy are followed, anyone can have the classroom management skills to be an effective teacher. In a sense, this is expert advice on the "soft skills" that are expected to be inherent in teachers, but may only be present in the select few that demonstrate results. Combined with an extensive background in the subject area being taught, a thorough understanding of these skills can be a one-two punch that will make teachers, students and schools more effective.
