Positive Behavior Supports
Classroom and School Community
Universal Design for Learning: Complex Learners
Ongoing coaching* combined with staff training workshops is the most effective service delivery model, but I also provide stand-alone workshops and as-needed consultation. For more specific information, fill out this brief intake form or contact me.
How we work together:
Complex learners contribute valuable diversity to the classroom… and can introduce behavioral and instructional challenges that schools are not prepared to meet. Attempts to “fix” problems after they are underway are often ineffective, expensive, and stressful for adults and children.
My consulting work brings school teams together to prevent problems through quality professional development. My strength-based staff training sessions are interactive, and always include advance and follow-up activities to make content “stick.” I also offer opportunities for administrators to sharpen their own facilitation and meeting design skills and apply them to PD, parent communication, and beyond.
This contextualized approach allows the whole community to thrive by working together to support complex learners proactively. My core content includes instructional design and delivery, positive behavior supports, and literacy development.
*In-person coaching in the San Francisco Bay Area or as part of a site visit package. Virtual coaching available elsewhere (and easier to schedule).
