The CoachingClass is NOT just for rookie coaches. It can provide the latest evidence-based information on how to work best with kids. We all need a little help remembering how kids learn, and what's important to them.
Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "if a child can't learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn."
