[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My principal talked with me about becoming a coach. My response was, "no way, never". I want to make a difference for kids and coaches don't do that. And no, they don't help kids through teachers either. Coaching is a position that should be eliminated. That money spent could be used to fund positions that actually impact students.[/quote] What a short sighted and ego centric view. I learned so much about bettering myself as an educator once I removed my shield and engaged with my instructional coach. I'm now an instructional coach in a different district and there are many ways to use the role to also make a difference for kids. Maybe your specific coach doesn't fulfill their role to their entire potential, but to just say that a position that I highly value is useless and doesn't help kids is nasty. I'm am educator with the same mission and goals as you, so maybe stop attacking my role.[/quote] Yeah, it's useless. [/quote]
