Coaching Services
Teaching math is a difficult job and teachers deserve support to be as effective as possible. When this happens, students are better served and teachers are happier and more fulfilled. I partner with teachers to support them, offer tools and guidance to help them identify areas they’d like to improve in and to achieve that improvement.
A coaching series would include
Building conceptual understanding in addition to fluency with calculations
Planning lessons - keeping broad learning goals at the forefront while aligning with state standards or school curriculums
Learning environment - creating safe respectful classrooms, building a productive climate
Classroom observations
Gathering info related to student understanding
Working with challenges in the classroom
Creating benchmarks to measure success
