Hey! I’m Chrissy and I’m here to help instructional coaches do their work with confidence and joy!

My resources and professional development are designed to take the doubt and guesswork out of instructional coaching by providing you with the tools and processes you need to do your job. Too many coaches have to figure everything out on their own, with little guidance or professional development from their school leadership. When you join the Buzzing with Ms. B instructional coaching community, you will find the support and professional learning you’ve been missing.

Check out my resources, read a few blog posts to get some new ideas, and listen to Buzzing with Ms. B: The Coaching Podcast for all the answers to your instructional coaching questions! There is something here on every topic: PLCs, professional development, coaching cycles, building relationships, and so much more!
