Start with the teacher, not
the tool.

I ask what the teacher is trying to make easier for students. Sometimes we test a tool; sometimes the better answer is a change to the task. We try something small, look at what happened, and decide together whether it is worth developing.

01

Art / multilingual assessment

Help students see what to do next.

An Art teacher needed an interactive IGCSE/IB tracking and feedback site. A rubric, self-tracking and Chinese/Korean translanguaging made the process easier for students to see. The next step is to document continued teacher and student use, without claiming grade improvement.

The standalone workbook saves entries in the browser where it is opened. It sends nothing to a server; on shared devices, use a blank copy and avoid entering personal or sensitive information.

02

Biology / confidence with AI

Start with one low-stakes test.

A Biology teacher felt intimidated by AI. A personalised exploration led to an AI charades chatbot that the teacher then shared with the department. The example shows a teacher-created artefact; it does not yet claim department-wide adoption.

How I approach a coaching cycle

Listen → Frame → Co-design → Try → Reflect.

Bring a lesson or question you are already working on. We can clarify the learning goal, try a manageable idea, and talk about what you would keep or change.
