North Coast Beginning Teacher Program
ENGLISH LEARNERS
Peer Coaching for Teachers of English Learners
This session will provide experienced educators with the skills necessary to work as a coach with beginning teachers or other colleagues all of whom are working specifically with groups of English Learners. The workshop will provide strategies that are research-based and have proven to be effective for working with adult learners. Some of these strategies include reflective conversations, the use of evidence in observation, supporting rather than evaluating, classroom observation techniques, communication skills, and trust-building. Participants will learn how to use the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP) as a base for observation feedback relative to student achievement and instructional strategies.
