Training not just teaching

Teachers hold candles in the dark for others. They light the way to lead students out of inattention and into awareness — of the subject matter and, most importantly, of their own abilities and worth.

Dynamic learning environments are constantly changing, but the best teachers both understand and operate from timeless principles.

To learn is important. To be heard is essential

Molly Ireland

“As a teacher and parent, Molly helped me become more in tune – to listen to how kids say statements – how are they framing them and what I can do to help. I highly recommend her.”

“I thought the balance of research and practical knowledge was pitched just right, with relevant examples for teachers that we could relate to.”

“Molly is an inspirational teacher. She helped me become a more confident learner. Molly also makes learning engaging and enjoyable; I would always look forward to my classes with her.”
