Raising kids is hard.
Helping them be better learners and humans is hard.
You don’t need to be alone in it.
We've all wondered how to respond when:
Helping them be better learners and humans is hard.
You don’t need to be alone in it.
We've all wondered how to respond when:
- Your Kindergartener seems to shut down when things get hard
- Your child’s teacher informs you that students said harmful things to each other in class
- Your middle-schooler wants to know more about hard history they've learned from a book or lesson at school
That's why we're offering EduBoost Coaching for families.

Here's how it works:
1. Your kid brings up a topic and you’re not sure how to respond: "Why does that man have a sign asking for money?" "We read a book about something bad that happened in our country." Or the teacher reports your child is having difficulty in school, and you want to talk to your kid about it but you’re unsure how to bring it up. 2. You send us a message on Slack telling us what’s going on via text or audio. Slack can be used on your phone or computer, so you can totally message us from the grocery store checkout line or at 2:00 A.M. when the question’s literally keeping you awake at night. 3. You get a personalized response (and any relevant resources) within 24 hours from me and/or my awesome colleague, Kara Pranikoff. |

You don't have to tackle these conversations alone.
I'm a parent of a preschooler, former Social Studies and Literacy teacher, student voice scholar, podcast host and educational justice coach.
When I’m not coaching, I’m often listening to Dr. Becky's podcast, Good Inside, getting a dose of current events from Pod Save the People, or reading a fantasy, mystery, or family drama novel. |
I'm a parent of young adult children, former classroom teacher, Instructional Coach, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging Facilitator, and author of the book, Teaching Talk: A Practical Guide to Fostering Student Thinking and Conversation.
When I’m not coaching, I’m often texting with my kids or cooking with one leg up like a flamingo. |
