1:1 Coaching
For Math Coaches & School Leaders
YOU SUPPORT TEACHERS, BUT WHO SUPPORTS YOU?

 I asked the same thing when I was a math coach! 
Now I'm providing the support I wish I'd had myself.
Do you want a strategic partner to help you:
  • articulate your vision for equitable math instruction in your school or district
  • engage and invest your team to co-create the vision alongside you
  • support a math teacher in your school or district by facilitating a teacher coaching cycle together
  • ​provide the professional development and coaching your teachers need to grow

Want to know if I can help? Let's talk.

ways to work together |
Let's work together to define a vision for equitable instruction and create a plan to make it happen!
option #1
5-Part Bridge to Grade-Level Math Workshop Series
Enroll in this live workshop series alongside members of your math teaching team. Together, we will work through the five essential steps to providing strong, equitable math instruction for students with unfinished learning using my signature Bridge to Grade-Level Math Framework (click here to access). During and after the series, we will work together 1 on 1 to provide feedback and support to your math teachers as they implement their learning. For more information, email [email protected] or schedule time with me below.
option #2
Math Coach Collective (group coaching + community)
Join a group of like-minded math coaches and instructional leaders working to provide effective and engaging math instruction for all students, including students with unfinished learning. As part of this live group coaching cohort, you will clarify your vision for strong math instruction and accelerate your team toward that vision through individual and group coaching sessions, role-specific trainings, idea sharing, and group problem-solving. For more information or to see if you're a good fit, please book time with me below.
option #3
Math Coach Mentorship (1-on-1 support for New Coaches)
Every coach needs a coach! In this 10-month mentorship, get the thought-partnership, guidance, and support you need to be successful in your first year as a math coach. After clarifying your vision for strong math instruction and investing your team, we will work together to help teachers realize the shared vision. I'll support YOU as you support TEACHERS with collaborative planning (PLCs), whole group professional learning (PDs), and high-impact teacher coaching cycles. Schedule time below if interested.
