Coaching strategies and resources that will give new teachers a head start toward a successful first year-and a great teaching career

Over the past 20 years, more new teachers than ever have entered the teaching profession. These educators are eager to do the best they can with the students they have and the resources they have been given, but most will struggle to find their footing. And with the average new teacher receiving only 1 or 2 observations a year, many early career teachers exit the profession without reaching their full potential.

In Get Better Faster 2.0: A 90-Day Coaching for Coaching Teachers, Paul Bambrick-Santoyo shares a practical guide to new teacher development inspired by over two decades of working alongside highly effective school leaders. These instructional leaders are skilled at developing new educators, and Bambrick-Santoyo has organized their best practices into a comprehensive, actionable guide to coaching that keeps teacher growth-and student learning-top of mind.

Get Better Faster 2.0 is divided into a 90-day plan and can be used to coach any teacher at any stage of their career. Teaching skills are broken down by priority into concrete, practice-able actions that principals and instructional coaches can layer as teachers reach mastery.

The book contains a wealth of resources to streamline and empower a school leader's work. Here are just a few:

  • Principles of Coaching: Learn from fellow principals how to do the following: use bite-sized feedback, facilitate in-meeting practice, and give frequent feedback to supercharge teacher development.
  • Coaching Blueprints: Leverage existing tools to cultivate continuous teacher growth. Reshape your Professional Development plan, observations and feedback meetings, and weekly data meetings to build strong teachers.
  • Get Better Faster Sequence of Action Steps: Pinpoint what is most important for teacher development with this sequential, four-phase guide to rigorous instruction and strong class culture.

These tools, along with coaching videos, the Get Better Faster 2.0 Coaching Guide, insights from school leaders, and a suite of print-ready materials, prepare school leaders to take new and experienced teachers to the next level.

Paul Bambrick-Santoyo is the Chief Schools Officer for Uncommon Schools and the Founder and Dean of the Leverage Leadership Institute. He is author of multiple books, including Leverage Leadership 2.0, Driven by Data 2.0, Love and Literacy, and Make History. Bambrick-Santoyo has trained over 40,000 school leaders worldwide in instructional leadership.
