Angela Watson's Truth for Teachers
EP232 The coaching mindset: How to think like an instructional coach to refine your teaching (with Nicole Turner)
29 Aug 2021
Have you ever wanted to coach yourself, use peer coaching, or better utilize an instructional coach assigned to your school? In this episode, I'm talking with Nicole Turner, an instructional coach, author, and the Creative Director at Simply Coaching + Teaching, LLC. We're talking about the mindset shifts needed to set your own goals, and choosing areas you care about improving in your teaching (rather than simply working on whatever you're told to improve on). And, if you're an instructional coach yourself, go to https://join.40htw.com/coaches to learn more abou the new 40 Hour Instructional Coaching program that Nicole and I just released together this summer. It's designed to help you streamline your tasks so you'e not working endlessly on nights and weekends. Nicole shares how you can identify your own professional goals related to topics that matter to you, then use self-coaching, peer coaching with a trusted colleague, or an instructional coach to help you meet those goals. If there's something you've always wanted to try in your classroom, or something that's not working well and you want support, this episode will offer some strategies to help you to be more "coachable: and get the input you need.
