What Our Clients Say
"As a first year principal, Hal and Hedi have been instrumental in my development as an instructional leader. They listen, offer guidance, share feedback, and provide new ideas in helping me take our campus to the next level. I am fortunate to be able to work with them in the coming years on academics, faculty support, and campus development. SLL is for the children!"
April H., Principal
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"I cannot overstate the exceptional support I've received from Hal and Hedi at Silver Lining Learning. Their guidance goes beyond traditional coaching, as they have played a crucial role in helping me navigate my responsibilities as a principal. Their provision of data, supportive templates, and their role as thought partners have been instrumental in developing my leadership abilities. With their assistance, I feel empowered to be the best possible advocate for my teachers and students."
Monica R., Principal
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"As a new administrator to this school, it has been a huge benefit to pair up with Silver Lining Learning as our consultants. Hal and Hedi are two of the most down-to-earth people, meaning they are always calm and give off the feeling of trustworthiness. They could help us map out a plan of what we really needed. This plan included providing us guidance with school improvement services, school management processes, and leadership coaching. It helps when someone outside can look inside through their data and research lens."
Julie R., Principal
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"Collaborating with Hal, Hedi, and Kristin from Silver Lining Learning has been truly transformative. Our educators eagerly anticipate their coaching sessions, finding them invaluable. Streamlining the observation and feedback process to occur within a single day has significantly enhanced its effectiveness. This focus on building our teachers' capabilities has led to remarkable improvements in both reading and math growth and proficiency."
Jennifer F., Principal
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"Hal and Hedi from Silver Learning have been a tremendous help to my staff and me. Their observations, comments and one-on-one meetings have changed the way my staff approach some of their teachings as well as how they look at iReady and use the data. They have been invaluable and are always available to assist at any time during the year, not just when they are here on campus."
