Bring a Kagan Coach to your school!

Kagan has developed a revolutionary coaching method that gets results! Most forms of coaching involve observation of a lesson, followed by evaluation. Not Kagan Coaching! Instead of observing a full lesson, Kagan Coaching focuses on a single structure. By properly implementing Kagan Structures, teachers boost engagement and learning. The feedback is in real time, not afterwards in a follow-up meeting. Teachers put the coaching tip into practice immediately and discover how small tweaks in a structure make a major difference in learning for students. Kagan Coaching is designed to support teachers, not evaluate them, as they add powerful teaching tools to their teaching toolboxes!

Here's how it works...

  • Your Kagan Coach can coach approximately 16 to 20 teachers per day.
  • Teachers sign up for structures ahead of time.
  • Teachers receive coaching checklists in advance. There are no surprises!
  • Your Kagan Coach provides specific feedback to teachers and general feedback for the entire building!
  • Administrators and instructional coaches are encouraged to accompany Your Kagan Coach to provide ongoing teacher feedback.
  • Your Kagan Coach can provide summary session at the end of the day to celebrate successes and identify next steps.
  • To maximize coaching success, Kagan recommends coaching occur at least once a quarter and within 4–6 weeks of initial training.

Kagan Coaching has made a tremendous impact in our district. With Kagan Coaching we have ensured that Kagan is being implemented correctly in all classrooms K-12 to help build district wide consistency. It has also empowered teachers to collaborate and help one another in new ways. Teachers are comfortable being coached by their peers as it is non-evaluative.  Instruction has been improved in all classrooms throughout the district.
