Review: I have been a literacy coach for 6 years and this book is by far the most helpful resource I have come across. The math coach and technology coach in my district are reading it with me and soon our principals will be as well.

Ever wonder if your coaching is making any impact on student learning? This book offers you tools to measure your effectiveness. Wondering how to divide your time or where to focus your time/energy? The suggested coaching cycles in this book might be what you've been looking for. Ever consider small group coaching? I hadn't until I read this book. Principals and coaches really need to CHECK IT OUT! Review: Diane Sweeney's book "Student-Centered Coaching" has arrived just in time for many districts across the country who are frustrated with lackluster results from the instructional coaching movement. She argues that for too long we've focused coaching efforts on teachers' practices and hoped to see results in student achievement rather than focusing on students from the get-go. She includes ways to make classroom visits more student-centered, specific data management tools and protocols for analyzing data, and a "results-based coaching tool" for coaches to measure their effectiveness with student progress. This book is a must for anyone who's a coach or principal.

I love this coaching book. Not only does it explain the role or purpose of a coach (which a lot of books and articles/blogs have done for me), but it guides me in creating a schedule for coaching. I understood why I was instructional coaching; what I needed was how is this done. A very easy to read book for myself and now all of the instructional coaches in my district will be reading this book for a book study!

Such an AMAZING starting book for coaches. Used this book for one of my first graduate classes for becoming an instructional coach, and it was loaded with great information and practical, real-world application. Learned so much - Loved it!

Great profession reading. As I am a reading coach and, in fact, our state recommends this book, I have it very educational and useful. I have one at my office and one at home so it's not misplaced in the moving back and forth.
