This position is part-time for the 2023-24 academic year and will include being an advisor. This position begins August 1, 2023.
Job Duties Include:
- Work with all new teachers as they adjust to teaching at Harpeth Hall and with other teachers, as requested.
- Schedule class visits with teachers to observe a lesson and provide feedback on the lesson.
- Follow an observation cycle that includes: a pre-observation meeting with the teacher to talk through the objective of the lesson and how it will be assessed, an observation of lesson, and a post-observation meeting for the teacher to reflect on the lesson and for the coach to provide feedback.
- Video parts of the lesson, when helpful to a teacher as a means of review
- Manage the setup of Folio at the beginning of the school year for the faculty to use as they set goals and provide reflection.
- Remain up-to-date on best classroom practices and provide feedback that aligns with best practices.
