Coaching teachers isn't easy.

You have teachers that have many reasons and excuses why they canā€™t implement improvements in their classroom. Even when you are able to produce change in some classrooms, you see teachers return back to their old ways. To add to that,Ā youā€™re worried about pushing your already overwhelmed and stressed out teachers too far.

During meetings, teachers with big feelings take up most of the meeting time. Sometimes, youĀ feel more like their therapist than their coach or leader. You have some teachers that constantly complainĀ about the changes but are unwilling to be solution oriented.

And to add to the urgency, classroom data is showing classrooms are making noĀ  progress or, even worse, you donā€™t have a way to even track the progress.

Ā 

But what if there was a way to reduce resistance, build buy-in and drive real (and lasting) progress in a data-driven way?

At The Whole Educator, we empower ambitious instructional coaches & leaders to increase their impact on classroom achievement and have the data to show it.

Reduced Resistance &

Increased Buy In to Change

Coaches are now able to impact all educators, even those resistant to change. Coaches saw improvement in teacher engagement in coaching, attitude towards change and effectiveness, where there previously was little to no sustained growth.

Sustained Change

Teachers shifted from passively listening and rarely implementing changes from professionalĀ  learning sessions to having meaningful conversations and regularlyĀ utilizing new strategies. Teachers stopped returning back to their old ways and took ownership over the changes, eliminating the need for heavy accountability systems and constant upkeep.

Teacher Retention

Coaches noticed diminished burnout and increased job satisfaction after implementing Whole Educator coaching strategies. Teachers started seeking out coaching support, where previously they avoided it. Coaches were able to save time, as teachers more readily soughtĀ  out support and were happily proactive about improvements in their classrooms.

Change can be hard.

You donā€™t have to go it alone.

And the one thing we can count on in education is, in fact, change.

Itā€™s hard out there - change can be really tough to implement, especially in schools with an increasing number of new teachers or even veteran teachers that have seen numerous changes come and go.

There is a very real teacher shortage out there. Some schools have more non-certified teachers than actual certified teachers. And the pressure is on you to catch up these inexperienced educators.

Youā€™re exhausted trying to help your teachers improve while tip-toeing the line ofĀ making sure they stay.

You have a number of change initiatives to implement this year and arenā€™t sure where to start.Ā 

Youā€™re frustratedĀ by constantly chasing after changes in classrooms that require substantial upkeep and heavy amounts of accountability to stay on track.

WE CAN HELP!

One of the biggest issues in coaching today is the overemphasis on task-centered coaching. What is needed today is a human-centered approach to coaching. We cause change throughĀ teachers' humanity, and not around it.

Ā 

Having a trusted approach that centers the whole human in coaching leads to higher retention, increased efficiency, instructional effectiveness and efficacy.

I'M INTERESTED

Hi, I'm Becca.

As the founder and CEO of The Whole Educator, I've dedicated 18 years to unlocking the potential of educators. My journey from the classroom to instructional coaching, coupled with my leadership coaching and life-coach training, revealed a powerful synergy between these roles. By combining these skill sets, I've developed an approach to coaching and leadership that is human-centered, versus task-centered (we get things done through our humanity, and not around it).
