Tiering Without Tears: Differentiating Your Instructional Coaching is the on-demand recording of Edu20/20’s live September 2026 webinar, created to help instructional coaches and leaders make clearer decisions about who gets coached on what.

Instead of building a completely different coaching plan for every teacher, this session centers on one diagnostic question: What’s getting in the way of learning the most? From there, you’ll learn how to use a simple decision tree to determine whether a teacher needs support in a foundational Priority Skill or is ready for coaching tied directly to the principal’s instructional goal.

The webinar also walks through Edu20/20’s five Priority Skills: Delivery of a Basic Lesson, Classroom Management, Student Engagement, Lesson Planning, and Behavior Management, and shows how these foundational skills can help coaches identify the most urgent instructional need.

You’ll learn how to:

  • use baseline walkthrough data to place teachers on the right coaching track
  • differentiate coaching based on each teacher’s current instructional need
  • identify team-wide patterns that may be better addressed through collaborative planning rather than repeated individual coaching cycles
  • reassess and re-tier teachers as their skills grow, so tiering remains a growth decision rather than a permanent label

This course includes the full recording of the live webinar along with the accompanying Tiering Without Tears resources, including the Tiering Decision Tree and tools you can use to sort and plan support for your own coaching roster.

Every classroom visited. Data collected. So what changed for teachers or students?

In Beyond the Checklist: Making Walkthroughs Work For You, principals, school leaders, and instructional coaches learn how to make classroom walkthroughs useful for both leaders and teachers.

This recorded webinar explores three common pitfalls—the communication gap, a weak feedback plan, and unused observation data—and practical moves to address each one.

Learn how to set a clear purpose, communicate what teachers can expect, plan brief feedback conversations, and use walkthrough findings to guide coaching, collaborative planning, and professional development.

Includes a planning guide, example communication email, and example school trend report to help you prepare for your next round of walkthroughs.

Most coaching conversations miss the mark because they focus on everything instead of what actually moves instruction. This mini-course helps cut through the noise.

Inside, we break down the 10 classroom skills that have the greatest impact on teaching and learning. Not broad ideas or vague feedback. These are real, observable actions you can see, track, and improve starting with the very next lesson.

You’ll learn how to:

Whether you’re a coach, school leader, or anyone supporting instruction, this course will help you simplify your focus, sharpen your feedback, and drive real results.

We discuss some quick moves you can share with teachers to check understanding that…

✅ …don’t require much prep

✅ …get students thinking and talking about content

✅ …actually give time back to teachers so that checks are manageable

Go from guessing to knowing what students know about the content in your lesson!

The Bayou Bridges Bootcamp helps educators understand how Louisiana’s social studies curriculum is organized, how the standards progress across grade levels, and how those pieces come together in daily instruction. Participants will break down the curriculum, examine what students are expected to know and do, and learn a practical process for planning lessons and units with greater clarity and purpose. By the end of the course, educators will be better prepared to navigate Bayou Bridges, make informed instructional decisions, and plan learning that builds knowledge and strengthens students’ social studies skills.
