Research shows that teacher practice is a critical factor in the success of classroom writing instruction—and a key component of literacy achievement overall.
By providing a complete platform of teaching support, our customized Coaching Services help ensure the fidelity of writing instruction and promote best practices in the classroom.

Our Customized Coaching Services Include:

Modeled Lessons
An Empowering Writers (EW) coach plans and delivers a live modeled lesson in the classroom for the purposes of observation, followed by a debriefing, Q&A and “next steps” action plan for participating teachers.
Observation and Feedback
Participating teachers will be observed by an EW coach in a live classroom setting and provided with annotated feedback and recommendations.
Resource Integration
Sessions that guide teachers to incorporate EW resources with other reading materials in meeting weekly standards and pacing. Discussions are guided to promote the thinking required to produce targeted lessons that maximize instructional time and resources.

Student Samples
Student-generated samples are analyzed through EW rubrics, followed by recommendations for actionable feedback and “next steps” for classroom instruction.
Test Prep
Teachers are guided in their preparation for state assessments. Analyzing student exemplars through the lens of EW strategies leads to the intentional selection of powerful lessons that will target student needs in order to achieve desired results.
Implementation Support
Ongoing conversations and classroom visits with EW coaches and administrators help ensure instructional consistency, support accountability and highlight student achievement.
