Client Quote:
"Sherry St. Clair has the uncanny ability to meet even the most skeptical adult learner and within an hour, she has created comfort, trust, and engagement. She best teaches instructional coaching by modeling what a gifted coach looks like in real life. Best of all, her content is research-based, built around best practices rather than programs. With her leadership of our literacy leadership institute over the past three years, Sherry is creating true "fishers" of improving literacy outcomes all over Georgia!"
