Our Services

Our services blend expert consulting and coaching but lean more heavily toward coaching. Why?

We believe in building capacity in your people so that they are better equipped to solve problems rather than creating reliance on another outside vendor. While we are also happy to offer you our perspective, we prefer to provide you with the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to conquer your current initiatives as well as every future initiative that your district or school endeavors. Each of the services described below focuses on building the capacity of your people for long lasting impact and financial sustainability.

Our services are not curriculum or content area specific and have been used to strengthen implementation of some of the most frequently used high-quality instructional materials in education, including Eureka Math, Eureka Math Squared, Illustrative Math, Core Knowledge (CKLA), UFLI Foundations, and Morpheme Magic. We are confident our services and resources can support your district or school no matter what curricula your teachers use.
