What is a Coach?

A coach is an expert in a particular subject matter that will lend his/her skills to teach a specific portion of the INCubator curriculum. After working with a classroom instructor to prepare the lesson, the coach will assist in classroom teaching over a specific module. Lessons taught by coaches will occur before lunch.

No teaching experience is necessary, but coaches should have an engaging personality and be passionate about their area of expertise. We are looking for volunteers that are excited to work with students and share their knowledge with these students. Coaches should have corporate or entrepreneurial experience.

Preparing to be a Coach

  1. E-mail LHSINCubator@lisd.net letting our team know of your interest to participate.
  2. Complete the Volunteer Application on LewisvilleISD.Voly.org.
  3. The LHS INCubator Team will match coaches from the volunteer pool with the course modules. First semester module coaches will be matched by September and second semester module coaches will be matched by December.
  4. In early September (early December for second semester modules), coaches will be notified of their module topic and an approximate date of this coaching assignment.
  5. In the weeks leading up to a coaching assignment, an instructor will send the module lesson plan to the coach. The coach will then prepare, enhance, personalize, and practice the lesson, meeting with an instructor throughout for guidance.
