Differentiated Coaching: A Framework for Helping Teachers Change

Awesome! I recommend this book to anyone who is responsible for helping teachers improve; administrators, educational consultants, instructional coordinators, instructional coaches, etc. I ordered this book because I wanted to figure out how to model differentiated instruction for the teachers that I work with. I not only have a game plan for differentiating my coaching, but also have a clear understanding of why what I was doing before was not working. This book helped me better understand myself, my teachers, and the students that we serve. Its the best book I've read on coaching yet.

This book has become invaluable to me in the work that I do to help teachers improve their performance. The materials are especially helpful in getting those teachers to take that first step in the performance improvement cycle, and that is self-evaluation. Getting a teacher to step back and examine what they are doing and how there may be a better way to operate is the most difficult part of an improvement cycle.

As an instructional coach helping our school through transformation to PLCs this book has been a very valuable tool. I highly recommend it to anyone wondering how to reach teachers (and students) who don't think like you do.

I enjoyed the author's sharing of personal experiences. I believe it provides us, facilitators and coaches, a practical perspective on working with teachers.

The author knows instruction and knows people. This is book I can use in various situations .
