Bringing a Coaching Perspective to Co-Teaching with Lindsay Manzella and John Stephany

This #coachbetter episode is a case study conversation with two amazing educators: EAL (English as an Additional Language) Teacher Lindsay Manzella and INS Teacher John Stephany. Lindsay and John worked together at NIST (Thailand) at the time of recording, where they developed a unique model for co-teaching and coaching to support all learners in John's classroom, where Lindsay was supporting EAL students. Both Lindsay and John have had training in coaching so they have come to the co-teaching experience with a foundational understanding of how coaching works.

In this episode they talk about:

• How Lindsay and John work together
• Why John, as an MYP INS teacher finds coaching so valuable
• Why Lindsay, as an EAL Teacher, finds coaching such a powerful support to her work
• What works well in their partnership as well as what can be challenging
• How this model might work in other schools
