Welcome to Instructional Coaching with Ms. B, where we believe that every teacher deserves a coach, and every coach does too! I’m Chrissy Beltran, an elementary teacher who became a coach and I had to create my own coaching program that worked. Now I teach coaches how to design their coaching programs, build a school-wide action plan, and use differentiated strategies to support teachers. Plus, I’ve got a special spot in my heart for literacy coaches! This podcast will cover instructional coaching strategies including modeling, co-teaching, and observations, coaching cycles, and more! We'll also talk about how to coach resistant teachers, how to establish yourself as a coach and define your role, set goals, manage your time, facilitate PLCs, and more! We chat with instructional coaches, principals, school leaders, and researchers!

288. Instructional Coaching Priorities for School Growth with Dave Stuart Jr.
Aug 17, 202625 minS7
Not sure where to focus your coaching work this school year to really move the needle? You’re in the right place! In this episode, author and teacher Dave Stuart Jr. joins me to unpack the 6 things teachers need to focus on in their practice. We chat about student motivation, knowledge building, argumentation, and literacy moves (reading, writing, speaking/listening). You’ll learn about the 5 key beliefs at the root of student motivation and how schools can support them. Dave explains how tracking moments of genuine connection can help teachers ensure every student feels seen, and how coaches can use the same practice with teachers to build credibility. Plus, get ideas for how instructional coaches can support teacher motivation and well-being. This conversation centers on ways to “minimize the noise” for teachers and focus on what truly matters most in the classroom.

Jul 20, 202615 minS7
You got the coaching job. Now what? Landing the position is only the beginning. Truth is, most of us aren’t handed a roadmap for what to do next.

These foundational practices will help you build a purposeful coaching program that supports teachers and leads to meaningful school-wide growth over time.

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
