S02 E06: Instructional Coaching with Ashley White

Guest Bio:

Ashley White has spent the last 13 years of her life teaching. She has taught in brick and mortar and online, in public, private, and public charter schools. She's a mom to three beautiful children and lives in the Portland-Metro area. Her favorite part of teaching is collaborating with teachers outside of her subject area to offer students an interdisciplinary learning experience.

Episode Summary:

Today, Ashley helps us understand that the goal of an instructional coach isn't to evaluate or even be a "big sister", but to walk with you, side by side as an advocate and ally in your professional journey as an educator.
