Case Study: The Nuances of Moving from Classroom to Coach with Tina Bhatia

This #coachbetter episode is another in our series of coaching case studies, with one of Kim's amazing clients, Tina Bhatia, Second grade classroom teacher at the American Community School of Abu Dhabi. Tina is a graduate of The Coach Certificate & Mentorship Program, working with Diana Beabout as her mentor - and when we recorded this episode she was almost finished with her coursework.

These case study episodes are designed to share the story of a coach, and the development of their coaching program and practice in their unique setting.

We are so excited to share this episode with Tina with you because it's always wonderful to hear about a classroom teacher who is inspired to become a coach - and it's important to unpack all of the different aspects to consider when moving from classroom to coach. Tina learned a lot during her time in The Coach, and she is so ready to make the move!

In this conversation Kim and Tina talk about:

  • What attracted her to coaching

  • What coaching looks like in her school setting right now

  • What she's thinking about as she's considering the move from classroom to coach

  • What teachers need to know to opt-in to coaching

  • Her advice for teachers wanting to move into a coaching role

  • Some "aha" moments she's had over the past academic year, learning about being a coach in The Coach Certificate and Mentorship Program
