The Head & Heart Turnaround Team supports and encourages continuous improvement in the teaching profession by assisting new teachers to become good teachers and accepting already good teachers and making them great teachers. We understand that "research based" does not necessarily mean good, or best for a certain situation, great, effective, or proven over time. There are countless powerful, important, innovative, effective, and often times transformative pedagogies that are NOT research based. Good teaching isn't about technique or strategy! Although many teachers around the world have described good teachers in varying degrees of technique and strategy, ALL teachers describe good teachers as having some sort of connective capacity...teachers who connect themselves to their students, their students to each other, and everyone to the subject being studied.
