Peer coaching is defined as a professional development method that has been shown to increase collegiality and improve teaching. Peer coaching also refers to in-class training by a supportive peer who helps the teacher apply skills learned in a workshop. Coached teachers experience significant positive changes in their behaviors, when provided with an appropriate program that insures accountability, support, companionship, and specific feedback over an extended period of time. Coaching is an ongoing process that involves a training stage followed by various extensions of that training.
