How do you become an instructional coach? Did you have special training? Or what books/resources do you recommend?

I think that some of the best leaders I know don't have titles. You want to follow them because you believe in them and trust what they say. I'm trying to lead more in that way.

Similar to the previous question - how do I manage a situation where I was specifically hired to update my severely behind-the-times department but my only supporter has since left? It was going well until we got new admin and my fellow language teacher thinks he's smarter than ACTFL. He is a problem but now so is getting "higher up" support and it's starting to feel like I'm fighting a losing battle

The infrequency of class is convenient for me, but it's challenging for high school students to learn a language with such infrequent exposure. Suggestions for trying to campaign for schedule changes with the administration?

What does the role of instructional coach look like on a day-to-day basis? What kind of feedback are you giving to peers? Do you use a rubric or other standardized measure of performance, similar to evaluations by admin?

Be sure to leave room and space for yourself to grow and receive training and other people's leadership.  It's as important for me as it is for other teachers.

Administrators can rely heavily on leaders without a role. Our experiences showed us it's important to be compensated in some way. Many of us like leading without a title!

You don't!!! You need to have a very supportive team (family, colleagues, board members, etc) that surround you and allow you serve as a leader in your language organization. It's not a weakness to ask and accept help in your role. It is also important to have an accountability partner.

Creating resources takes a lot of time and effort. In my opinion, it feels so good knowing that I saved my colleagues time by sharing what I have made. Yes, it may be scary to put your work out there for others to see. It may not be their style, but maybe they take it and put their own spin on it. They may have needed some inspiration and this gave them the perfect idea for how to move forward.
