2021 is a critical year for transforming education and not returning to the 'old normal.' That means helping every teacher and school redesign learning around meaningful, authentic, and engaging work that personalizes education and allows young people to tap into their sense of purpose. It also means eliminating any barriers that teachers face to mastering best practices and developing the mindset of a 21st Century, future-ready educator. In short, it's time for high quality PBL professional learning to be made available to all teachers, everywhere, at no charge. And PBL Global is the first to step up.

For 2021, PBL Global is emphasizing Partnering for Change, a comprehensive, personalized coaching and mentoring approach to helping schools transform teaching, implement high quality PBL, and develop the practices, mindset, and infrastructure critical to transformation. The goal? Help schools their systems and beliefs, not just their teachers--and I have a unique perspective on both.
PBL Global has worked with over 400 schools worldwide, coached 6000 teachers, and helped found academies and new schools (including a high school of my own). Plus, the strengths-focused approach to PBL values the whole child and wellbeing that takes a village to implement. It's all gotten easier now, too! Use Virtual Coaching to connect to staff anywhere in the world (We are currently working with schools in Australia and India), and schedule meetings to match your professional learning schedule.
