Case Study: Building a Coaching Culture as a Classroom Teacher with Lana Yashchyna

Case Study: Building a Coaching Culture as a Classroom Teacher with Lana Yashchyna

This #coachbetter episode is another in our series of coaching case studies, with one of Kim's amazing clients, Lana Yashchyna, 4th grade classroom teacher at the American International School in Kuwait. Lana is a graduate of The Coach Certificate & Mentorship Program and when they recorded this episode she had just finished the program.

These case study episodes are designed to share the story of a coach, and the development of their coaching program and practice in their unique setting.

In this conversation Kim and Lana talk about ...

  • Why coaching was so impactful for her as a classroom teacher
  • How she decided to make the move from classroom to coach
  • How she’s been building a coaching culture in her 4th grade team
  • What prepared her to be ready to build a coaching culture in a teaching role
  • Why coaching is so essential in a high pressure school environment
  • If coaching is sustainable as a full time classroom teacher
  • All the steps it took her to build a coaching culture on her team

This episode is a fantastic example of all of the ways that classroom teachers can influence a culture of coaching at the team level - and why this is ultimately not a sustainable combination of roles for the long term! If you’re curious about building a coaching culture at the team level - this episode is for you!
