Professional Development

I deliver virtual professional development in the areas of second language development for multilingual learners, focusing on data analysis, stages of language development and intervention, and genre-based writing practices.

Instructional Coaching

In my work in San Bernardino city schools, I had the pleasure of working closely with model teachers on the development of instructional videos for ELD. Each involved a series of planning, designing lessons, modeling, and coaching feedback to refine the practices we wanted to highlight.

 

To understand the instructional practices I promote and coach, review the videos below. Each have been featured as exemplars on the California Department of Education's instructional resources website for English Language Development (ELD).
