Paul Mcdonogh’s Expertise ≡"The students who challenge their teachers the most, need their teachers the most." - Heidi McDonald As an educator with the Anchorage School District, my work in education is varied and prolific, from classroom teacher to coaching students and teachers in the aim of developing community. My staple has been physics teaching, but aside from that I have taught over twelve different subjects of very math and science. I use my experience researching and analyzing pedagogy and instructional models to adapt learning with a student-centered vision. I strive to meet students at their level by construction classroom systems of empathy and student voice. With the ASD I have worked as an athletic coach and activity advisor in numerous sports and clubs. Empowering students through their own choice in extracurriculars, I have strived to use research-based practices in each of the ways. I have served as a coach for three varsity sports, school government clubs, and community service clubs. Recently, I formed and advised the Chugiak's Women's Engineers club. These students were selected to represent Alaska with their project regarding Indigenous women with the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow. The club shared its engineering plan at the national competition and won a 15,000 technology grant for Chugiak. ≡"I have been maturing as a teacher. New experiences bring new sensitivities and flexibility..." - Howard Lester The new direction in teaching needs to be in service of the wellness and health of the students. My new philosophy is to help the student overcome their wellness needs, and their learning will always follow in a stronger and more driven direction than before. I have been researching empathy-based teaching practices and positioning myself to use them in the teaching world. At Chugiak, I worked as an instructional coach with the Capturing Kids Hearts national curriculum. Our school recently received the recognition of Model School showcasing our use of research-based empathy models to build school community. My next step is to examine how schools specifically look at wellness. A wellness-coaching program should be a staple of the education program, just like it is emerging as an essential support service in higher education and other communities like healthcare services. As we ask students to master their motivation to demonstrate learning in reading, writing, mathematics, and finding their passions, a wellness coach is showing to be a difference-maker for the students actualizing their success.
