Manage episode 447983584 series 3609958
Welcome to the Coaching Conversations Bonus Series of The Literacy in Color Podcast!
In this episode, we dive into what it truly means to "coach with heart". I share three essential tips to help you succeed as a literacy coach. Whether you’re just starting out or already in the thick of it, these tips focus on building trust, fostering collaboration, and maintaining confidentiality to ensure effective and supportive coaching relationships. Administrators, teachers, and aspiring coaches will all find value in this heartfelt approach to coaching!
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why approachability is more important than content knowledge when it comes to building trust with teachers.
- The importance of asking teachers what they want to be coached on, instead of offering unsolicited advice.
