This is why I became a Master IEP Coach®. I can bridge the gap and support both sides of the table. Reach out to me if you think I can help your Special Ed journey.
It’s a straight-out lie that parents and teachers have to be on separate sides of the IEP table.
Teachers chose to be at the IEP table, by going into this career.
Parents need to be at the IEP table, they are their child's voice.
Both want the same thing, for a child to experience a wealth of meaningful learning during their school day.
How we get to that end result can be difficult on some days.
That doesn’t mean you’re on separate sides.
It means you care deeply.
Working together is critical for a child’s IEP to be successful. This requires both TRUST and INTEGRITY.
This is exactly why the Master IEP Coach® Mentorship is for EVERYONE who sits at the IEP table.
Parents, teachers, therapists, admins… if you’re exhausted with IEPs and you know in your gut there’s got to be a better way (there is!), then drop an emoji below and send me a DM for the details on how to become a Master IEP Coach!

Check out this great article and resources. Such an important point to keep a record of your child's ability to learn at home. Collecting data will help you to see if goals are being met and providing this information to the IEP team is vital to advocating for services. Another tip is to ask for a tutor to support your child's learning at home.
