Expertise

What I bring to a school

Five areas where I can help your community move from good intentions to consistent practice.

Program Design and Leadership

I design ESOL/EAL programs from the ground up, with clear entry, support and exit pathways, and lead the teams that deliver them.

Instructional Coaching

I coach teachers through co-planning, observation and reflection so that language support becomes part of everyday teaching.

Assessment and Placement

I use WIDA, ACTFL and MAP data alongside classroom evidence to place learners fairly and monitor their growth.
