Transformational Coaching for Early Childhood Educators

Transformational Coaching for Early Childhood Educators is a reflective guidebook designed to help early childhood professionals strengthen their coaching skills and their ability to facilitate transformational learning in others. The goal of this program is for individuals to attain sustainable habits of self-reflection, critical thinking, problem-solving, and lifelong learning themselves, as well as the ability to intentionally facilitate others to do the same.

The GROOMER Framework for Change Model™ is a mental model that offers an intentional framework to facilitate transformational lasting change. This guidebook can be used by supervisors working with staff or peer-to-peer but is recommended to be used with another person to get the full benefit of transformational coaching.

If you only get one professional development opportunity on how-to-coach, this should be it! Written in a bite-sized, easily digestible format that caters to adult learners, Constant Hine has written a motivational tool that can truly raise your skills to an art form. With her help, you can promote true and lasting change for educators.

Constant Hine is a unique treasure in this field—a professional who began as an early childhood teacher and now, a wisened advocate for teachers, truly understands what needs to happen in classrooms for real improvement to occur. Attending conferences and classes may be informative, but without serious reflection on one’s practice, little change will occur. In Transformational Coaching for Early Childhood Educators Constant expertly pinpoints for coaches how to work with teachers to promote reflection and real change.

ECE policy makers invest a lot of resources into classroom coaching, but all too often without a framework that will result in truly transforming classroom practice. Constant Hine provides an excellent guide toward change and one of the most useful books on coaching I’ve seen.

Constant presents a coaching model that allows for flexibility, offers self-reflection opportunities and tools, and empowers coaches to collaborate with others in a gentle, meaningful partnership. This work will undoubtedly have a long-lasting, positive impact on all that make the time to share and receive this powerful framework.
