The Coaching Institute provides a unique opportunity to work with teacher educators from around the United States to consider the meaning of excellence in K-12 teaching, and identify ways to convey that vision to teacher candidates.
Unpack and practice the work of supporting teacher candidates to build their instructional skill.
Try out practice-based teacher education pedagogies with novice teachers from teacher preparation programs local to the Houston, TX, area.
Learn the professional norms that can make intensive coaching feel uncomfortable, and identify ways to shift them using effective tools and planning.
Anyone who teaches teachers is welcome to participate in the Coaching Institute, including methods course instructors, education foundations instructors, education psychology instructors, and mentor and cooperating teachers in K-12 schools.
Skillful teaching can have a major impact on student learning. Teacher educators owe it to children to provide novice teachers with high-quality professional training so that they can develop strong, equitable instructional skills and use their craft to advance teaching for social justice. To this end, teacher educators offer novice teachers intensive coaching, including delivering constructive critique, pointing out alternative approaches, and providing opportunities to try again, with support.
