About Ed Roos

Prior to starting this consulting business, I was the principal of an award-winning school which held the distinction of being one of the highest performing schools in the district. I also taught for eleven years. As a teacher, I raised test scores at a Title I school by 30% in one year. In addition, 100% of my writing students passed their state writing assessment.

Now I stand as an academic and nonprofit leader with the ability to lead students, teachers, administrators, and teams towards common goals. I am passionate about student success, learning, and the power of education. Additionally I have great communication skills, am passionate about student leadership and outcomes, and an excellent program manager and project manager.

Coaching Teachers

7+ years of proven experience coaching, mentoring, and guiding classroom teachers. I have personally coached 50+ teachers throughout career. I utilize an observational leadership/coaching approach that identified areas of growth and then work collaboratively with the instructor to come up with a plan. I believe in working together to develop solutions and then holding teachers accountable for their success while encouraging them to challenge themselves.
