<p>Some teacher leaders and administrators have job descriptions that include what I would call elements of coaching and elements of supervision.

Supervisors can be coaches if the teachers believe they can separate the roles. As you listen to this podcast, consider if some of the forms, processes, or practices in your system can be confusing. <a href='https://barkleypd.com/blog/building-trust-with-expectations/'>View the Evaluation-Peer Coaching Continuum here.</a> </p> <p><a href='https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/steve-barkley-ponders-out-loud/id1254070860?mt=2'>Subscribe to the Steve Barkley Ponders Out Loud podcast on iTunes</a> or visit<a href='http://barkleypd.com'> BarkleyPD.com</a> to find new episodes!</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
