Clint Hamada

I’ve been a math teacher, a design teacher, an EdTech coach and now an EdTech Coordinator since 1996. While the culture of coaching and providing a supportive environment for students and colleagues is something that I have always believed in, I have recently begun inquiring more and more about the science and research around the transformative power of coaching. I always learn so much from the conversations that I have with teachers, coaches and leaders from around the world!
