Blended Coaching and Coaching Curve Approaches in Enhancing Teaching Competency: A Case Study

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to highlight the approach of integrated coaching in enhancing teacher capacity development by School Improvement Specialist Coach Plus (SISC+). The coaching approach is a combination of facilitative, directive and dialogue coaching. The coaching curve by Bradley William was also employed in this study. This case study involved an in-depth study of a teacher teaching history subject from 2018 to mid 2019. Data were collected using the Teacher Coaching Tool (TCT) instrument used by SISC+ as a standard document to guide teachers. The findings showed that the teacher’s teaching and learning (TnL) competency in the classroom was improved in writing learning objectives, activity-based, pedagogical content knowledge and conclusions aspects of TnL. It is recommended further study on the effectiveness of SISC+ coaching practice with a larger sample to address the various issues in the field of coaching.
