Instructional Coaching is a highly successful, personalised method to professional development that focuses on improving teaching techniques through ongoing, one-on-one support. Coaches watch instructors in the classroom, provide meaningful input, and help them adopt particular, research-based practices. This technique assists teachers in identifying their strengths, setting specific goals for improvement, and making measurable progress over time. Instructional coaching improves educator practice and student results by providing ongoing, focused guidance.
