Have you ever noticed how negativity can take over a mathematics coaching and training session, turning a productive opportunity into a venting session?

When challenges dominate, progress gets sidelined, and it’s easy for our hard working teachers to disengage. But with the right approach, you can transform the tone of the session and foster meaningful learning and collaboration.

Listen in and learn that by starting with a focus on wins and successes, you can energize your participants and create a space for positivity. Real-life success stories inspire action and help hesitant teachers take that first step toward improvement. Imagine your next mathematics coaching and training session buzzing with productive conversation and motivation.

Use these simple prompts to kickstart your next mathematics coaching and training session with positivity: “What has been successful for you recently?” or “Share a celebration from using a new tool.” Try this approach in your next PD session to see the shift in energy and engagement.
