The Power and Effectiveness of Group Coaching for Educators with Cheryl Collins #225
In this episode of Empowered Educator, you’ll hear from Cheryl Wells Collins as she shares the power and effectiveness of group coaching for educators and parents. Cheryl explains why group coaching works—how open conversations around challenges and wins create space for growth, clarity, and confidence for everyone involved. You’ll get a glimpse into the types of topics explored in these coaching groups and how participating in community has helped others feel more fulfilled and effective in their roles.
Cheryl brings over forty years of experience serving under-resourced communities, including sixteen years as a classroom teacher across grades pre-kindergarten through eighth and leadership as a principal and nonprofit CEO.
