At Visually Speaking, I use the term learning coach to refer to anyone who supports learners.
That might look like:
- Educators, EAs, or ECEs
- Clinicians, therapists, or support professionals
- Parents, caregivers, or family members
- Tutors, facilitators, or mentors
Often, it looks like more than one role at the same time.
This term isnโt meant to replace anyoneโs professional identity.
Itโs simply a shared way of naming support across contexts โ home, school, work, and community โ as we talk about learning and thriving together.
If this term lands differently for you, or if you use other language in your own context, youโre welcome to add your perspective here.
