“I’ve been in a coaching role for 3 years. This course was a great validation of the work I’ve started as well as learning new tools and strategies for the future. The zoom sessions were engaging and meaningful. This was an engaging course with many purposeful tools shared.”
“I thought this course was amazing. It gives a lot of direction to coaching teachers. I loved learning how to implement the checklist to support teachers. I also like the dialogue aspect, where teachers will be the drivers of their coaching cycles.”
