“Coaching cycles are pivotal to both the students and teachers at WIS because they have such a positive impact on the structure and culture of the classroom. My coaching cycle has made me more confident in my abilities to push my students farther and challenge them each day. In addition to this, students are more engaged in small group work, they look forward to this time every day. My coaching cycle has made me a more confident teacher and it has made my students more engaged learners.”
