Welcome to another episode of Coaching Conversations, where I have the pleasure of having a thought-provoking dialogue with the incredible Dr. Ayanna Cooper. As an educational consultant and fervent advocate for culturally and linguistically diverse learners, Ayanna brings a wealth of experience to the table.

Throughout her illustrious career, Ayanna has worn many hats, from serving as an English as a Second Language teacher to taking on roles as an ELL Instructional Coach, Urban Education Teacher Supervisor, ELL/Title III Director, and ELL/Bilingual Program Specialist.

Join us as we delve into Ayanna's journey, discussing the challenges and triumphs she's encountered along the way. We explore the nuances of her role as an advocate, shedding light on the strategies she employs to ensure inclusivity and support for learners from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds.
