🎯 Leaders, perhaps you feel like you KNOW the mandates and objectives of your curriculum, but you would like support DOING these, with consistency, and with integrity! I have walked a mile in your shoes as a former Vice Principal and IB PYP Coordinator.
👏 Here's a lived (and research-based) truth:
👉 When our plates are full and our schedules are overstretched, we default to our most "tried and true" processes. These are the ones we inherited and practiced early in our lives and careers. Sometimes these methods aren't the ones we WANT to be exercising.
⏱ For example, let's imagine giving a child a "time out" by sending them into the hall in the afternoon but then writing a blog post on the value of "co-regulating." Our knowledge takes time to put into action. Doing so consistently, with intention, and artistry takes practice and dedication. This is where my work lives.
🎉 Supporting teachers and instructional leaders is my jam! Here are some of the ways I I help:
🔥 Bring in current research to strengthen the argument for learning mandates 📚
🔥 Build motivation and confidence with inquiry practices amongst leaders, teachers, and students 🤸♀️
🔥 Lead professional development experiences tailored to your needs so you can EXPERIENCE the pedagogy you want to lead 🤗
🔥 Keep the pulse on the work through feedback and feedforward sessions 👏
🥳 I can do this work because:
✅ I am well versed in the IB PYP and have facilitated pedagogical transformations in partnership with hundreds of educators, learners, and families across North America and beyond.
✅ As a former school leader and current consultant, I have increased enrolment in multiple schools through curriculum, instruction, and environment redesign.
✅ I have empathy for various stakeholders. I have been a professor for new teachers, a classroom and specialist teacher, parent, and teacher mentor. Now I'm doing my PhD with over 20 years of experience across preschool, elementary, and university classrooms.
