Coaches
Pivot Learning Partners has trained and certifed over one hundred and fifty coaches and Project Leads. Pivot Learning Coaches are a select group of forward-thinking, mission-driven and highly experienced educators who are able to provide practical support to accelerate district and school transformation. Our unique approach to coaching combines a foundation of research-based solutions with traditional coaching skills. Pivot Learning Coaches shift fluently among roles from coach to consultant to facilitator to teacher. The result is an effective partnership that empowers teachers and administrators to reach their leadership potential, accelerate change in their districts, and most importantly, increase student achievement.
