Premium Teacher Coaching

I had a great time talking with you about my lessons. I really appreciate your time and advices you gave me. I really regret to inform you that I didn't get to see my lessons before the coaching session but after that I had time to sit down got review it on my own. It made realize what I could have done. Thank you again for the opportunity to work with you.

I like the one-on-one discussion where a coach can share ideas on how to fix or improve things. Teaching is a continuous learning journey, and as a professional, I can learn in many ways through GrapeSEED teaching with the support of a coach. It is very helpful and gives me a lot of confidence in how to run the class smoothly. If I were going through this journey alone, I wouldn’t be able to do it on my own. A coach helps me see how I grow and how I progress.

During my first coaching session, I felt clueless because my previous school did not offer this kind of support. Transitioning to a different curriculum and teaching an all-kids class was a completely new experience for me. GrapeSEED coaching helped me better understand my current situation and showed me how to manage my classes more effectively. The coaches were very supportive and provided helpful suggestions for future lessons. Their experience and insights helped me become more creative and flexible in my teaching. Thank you for the opportunity to learn and grow through coaching.

I have been a GrapeSEED teacher for over three years, and whenever I face a challenge with a student or a situation in class, I reach out to a trainer for advice. Every coaching session I have had has provided helpful tips on how to improve my lessons and make them more impactful for my students. Even when I am not struggling, recording and sharing a lesson has been valuable. The positive feedback has boosted my confidence. At first, GrapeSEED felt overwhelming, but having support outside my coworkers made me more comfortable teaching the curriculum. I highly recommend making time for a coaching session.

I truly appreciate Michael’s coaching report and the thoughtful feedback he provided. His insights helped me reflect on how I bring energy and enthusiasm into the classroom while building a strong foundation with GrapeSEED. I was especially encouraged that he noticed the positive interactions with my students, such as how praise can create a chain reaction of gratitude. His specific suggestions, including being mindful of potentially confusing language and incorporating more props, were both practical and inspiring. Thank you, Michael, for your supportive guidance and for helping me continue to grow as a teacher.

The advice that I received on how to get the students that aren't participating as actively involved in the GrapeSEED lesson is extremely helpful. I will be testing out different ways of positive reinforcement and using items such as popsicle sticks to get the students to participate more actively as well. Thank you for the coaching session again!

[GrapeSEED Coaching] is a nice tool to have as a teacher. It’s great to speak to a coach directly rather than writing an email. It’s very clear. It’s easy to ask questions about the pacing for example and anything specific in the classroom.

I have learned so much from our coaching session. The points you shared really help me with the classes I handle.

As for the coaching, I really appreciated how personalized and encouraging our session was. The practical tips and fresh perspectives were just what I needed, and I felt very supported throughout.

Thank you very much for the meaningful coaching session we had via Zoom. I truly appreciate the time and guidance you shared with me. It was my first time being coached by you, and I felt comfortable and supported throughout the session. I especially valued how you encouraged me to reflect on my lesson by identifying both strengths and areas for improvement. Your positive feedback boosted my confidence, and your constructive suggestions motivated me to keep growing. Thank you again for your support and for creating such a collaborative and encouraging experience.

I recently had my first coaching session with Coach Michael Pamintuan, and it was a very positive experience. He was accommodating and easy to talk to, and his calm presence created a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere during our Zoom session. I appreciated how he encouraged me to reflect on my recorded lesson by identifying both strengths and areas for improvement. His affirmation of the good points boosted my confidence, and his constructive feedback was delivered in a supportive and thoughtful way. Thank you for the encouraging guidance and for helping me continue to grow as a teacher.

Your advice on lesson conduct has been incredibly valuable and has truly helped me improve the effectiveness of my recent classes. I have been applying your suggestions, and I can already see positive results. My lessons feel more enjoyable for the students, especially by allowing them to sing more rather than reading the content for them. I have also noticed better engagement after adjusting how I reward good behavior and encourage less spoken Japanese. Thank you for your guidance and support, which continue to make a meaningful difference in my teaching.
