FAVORITE COACHING BOOK: The PD Book by Lori Cohen and Elena Aguilar

“Lindsay Deacon and Angela Scotto Harkness have done all educators a great service by putting together this collection of ​‘essential strategies for surviving and adapting to the changing environment of schools.’ Literally, each of the scenarios of the ​guide addresses an issue that coaches have brought up to me, sometimes dozens of times, in the past. I’m convinced that ​anyone who works as a coach will find this book extremely useful.”

Dr. Jim Knight,

Author, Researcher, and Senior Partner of the Instructional Coaching Group

“While many of the works of other coaching experts lay excellent foundations for work, I find that many authors are far ​removed from the quirky, chaotic, and intense environments and situations that full-time instructional coaches experience. ​This book keeps it real about the things that happen, but often aren't discussed in other texts.”
