This book was a foundational text for the course because it gave detailed examples of how all teachers can successfully teach students from different racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds. What I like most about the book, besides its terrific content, is that the author uses language that is accessible, yet profound. Simply put, this book is a must have for teachers and teacher educators. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Framework for Professional Development *by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2017* Dr. Milner's book serves as both a dose of reality and a refresh button for those in the field of public school education. I think his work is a pure reflection of today's public school settings for both students and teachers. I would consider it a must-read for all teachers, regardless of whether you teach in a culturally diverse district or not. As a secondary teacher who has taught in both a suburban affluent school and in an urban poverty-stricken school setting I found the narratives and the interconnected ideas something that really touched home--something that I have a first hand understanding. It encouraged me to analyze and think deeper about my own instructional practices, instructional ideologies and think about both how I engage with my students and how my students engage with me. In addition, I think Milner's book should serve as model for district wide professional development utilizing each of the five areas discussed in the book as independent workshops. The final chapters of the book highlighting teacher narratives and experiences I think are stories that any classroom teacher, counselor and administrator can identify with…whether you have been teaching for two years or two decades. This work should be a required reading for educators across the nation. It serves as a "reset & refresh" button and I found it to be a "shot in the arm" which has rejuvenated my teacher spirit! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A MUST READ FOR ANY EDUCATOR! *by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2020* I had the opportunity to read this book while taking a class on Culturally Responsive Pedagogy with Dr. Milner this spring. Simply put, "Start Where You Are, But Don't Stay There," is a must read for any educator! The book lays out for teachers both the guiding, reflective questions to ask and real-world concrete case study examples to follow to develop as an educator. Ultimately, Dr. Milner's work is a sensitive guide for any teacher teaching students, especially for teachers who are navigating teaching across differences. I can't recommend it more highly!-- graduate student at Vanderbilt University --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/5963282-start-where-you-are-but-don-t-stay-there-understanding](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/5963282-start-where-you-are-but-don-t-stay-there-understanding) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-10-08*
