A Teacher’s Perspective on Instructional Coaching with Brenda Lee

In this #coachbetter episode Kim chats with Brenda Lee, Grade 4 teacher at Al-Bayan Bilingual School (BBS) Kuwait.

We're excited to share this episode with you because it’s a topic that’s been requested by you! We received a request to hear from educators (rather than coaches) about their experiences with coaching.

In this conversation with Brenda, they talk about

• How instructional coaching has supported her growth as an educator

• How instructional coaching fits within the context of educator professional growth

• What classroom teachers need to know to opt in to coaching

• How she makes time for coaching in a busy teacher’s schedule

• Why some teachers resist coaching

• How coaching works for her as a classroom teacher

• Why she’s hoping to make the move from classroom to coach

This episode is a fantastic example of why teachers chose to opt-in to coaching - and how you can articulate the value of coaching for your prospective coaching partners!
