Coffee With Your Coach

“Where warm coffee, real talk, and instructional clarity begin.”

About Me

Hi, I'm Samantha.

I've been in education for 20 years now. Ten in the classroom, ten as an instructional coach. Along the way, I've learned something that took me way too long to fully embrace: I am more than a teacher. And so are you.

​I picture CWYC like your favorite coffee shop. The one that serves the most amazing cup of coffee that warms you and your heart as you drink it. A place you want to go on your best days because it lights you up. And a place you can come on your worst days because you know it will surround you with love and safety.

​I saved you a seat. Grab a cup. Let's talk.

Here’s How We Grow Together

You Show Up

You bring your classroom, your challenges, and your goals. No performance required. Just you.

We Figure It Out

Together we reflect, plan, and build something that actually fits where you are.

I Walk With You

I listen, ask the right questions, and help you find your own answers.

You Take Flight

You leave with tools, confidence, and a practice that's fully yours.

Let’s Grow Together

Whether you're ready now or planning ahead, there's a seat at the table for you.

What teachers are saying

Melissa R.

3rd Grade Teacher

"Before working with Sam, I felt like I was just going through the motions. Our coaching conversations helped me see my students differently and actually look forward to trying new things in my classroom again."



Jada T.

1st Grade Teacher

“As a first year teacher I was drowning. Sam had a way of meeting me exactly where I was without making me feel like I was behind. By the end of the year I felt like I actually knew what I was doing.”


Stay inspired with helpful tips, stories, and news.

    Christine M.

    5th Grade Teacher

    "I've been teaching for 15 years and I honestly didn't think coaching was for me. Sam changed that. She asked the right questions and helped me rediscover why I started teaching in the first place."
