Raising the standards of education
“I had the opportunity to work with Wendy & Steve over the course of six years, first as a teacher and then as a mentor and coach. I can’t overstate their impact on my efficacy as a facilitator of adult learning. They emphasize the rigorous intellectual aspects of teaching, and they never lose sight of the importance of an individual teacher’s ownership of her intellectual engagement and teaching practice. They aren’t about spoon-feeding suggestions and strategies; rather they helped me to build habits of mind that supported my own continued development even when they were not present. This means that the work with them is hard and it takes time, but that it really sticks.”
