Elina Duchev

Elina is an Instructional Strategist who works with K-5 teachers to provide coaching and workshop facilitation support in literacy, social-emotional, and classroom management practices. Elina believes that the cornerstone of student achievement is the empowerment ofteachers. When teachers feel equipped with proven strategies and supports, they are grounded in confidence to create a learning environment where students feel safe to explore new ideas, to collaborate with others, and are motivated to embrace challenges.

Elina has degrees in Early Childhood Education and in Reducing Student, Classroom, & School Disruption: Prevention & Interventions. She is highly experienced in analyzing data, using it effectively to drive instruction, supporting positive classroom management practices, and in coaching teachers in implementing engaging and explicit student-centered instruction.

When she is not working with educators, she can be found dabbling in a variety of different hobbies including film and digital photography, paddleboarding, and sewing.
