Consulting and Coaching: Onsite or Virtual
We have all been there. We read a book. We go to a workshop. We visit a specialist. And then we go home or back to our classroom and still have all the same challenges, questions and frustrations.
"Consulting" provides a short term but personalized experience, bringing the expertise you need in your authentic setting, in real time rather than through a traditional off-site, formal professional development session. It allows for observation, individualized recommendations, and back and forth discussion.
"Coaching" goes beyond a one-time, "sit and get" session OR a short term consulting experience. It is an ongoing, relationship-based process between the coach and the educational/family team, helping to maximize outcomes for all involved. Coaching involves multiple visits, observations and ongoing informal communication between the coach and the team members.
Coaching or consulting can include supports for academic skill development, home and community skills, social skills, functional communication, sensory needs and emotional/behavioral self management.
