The Teacher Collaboration Pathway includes:
Co-Teaching & Co-Reflecting
Co-teaching can be one of the most rewarding professional endeavours available to content and language specialists. By collaborating with colleagues, we ensure an equitable learning experience for multilingual learners. There are approaches, frameworks, and strategies to make co-teaching a fruitful experience for teachers and students. Additionally, we can intentionally improve our co-teaching by engaging in informal reflections on a consistent basis. Learn with Tan as he shares suggestions on how to bring your co-teaching to the next level. Your colleagues, students, and practice will never be the same after this course!
Co-Planning & Co-Assessing
To transform multilinguals’ academic experience, we must collaborate with our homeroom and content colleagues. In this course, Tan will share his frameworks and strategies to maximize collaborative planning time. This course will help elevate language specialists who feel like instructional aides so that they are recognized as equal, effective, and highly valued colleagues. Come learn the phases of a collaborative instructional cycle in this strategy-packed, career-altering journey.
Cultivating Co-Teaching Relationships
We are in a relational industry. We form relationships with students to learn about their interests and to earn their trust. We also form relationships with colleagues to co-teach multilingual learners. However, we must cultivate mutual trust and respect to ensure teacher collaboration goes well. Trust and respect are not given automatically; they are earned through time. Learn with Tan as he shares how we can cultivate a trusting, encouraging, and rewarding professional relationship with colleagues on behalf of multilingual students.
