There are teachers who give up teaching, and yet continue teaching. Can they be re-inspired? Here, I tell the story of a coaching conversation with an exhausted teacher. It did not go well. Or maybe it went as well as it could? You tell me. This story first appeared in "The Coach in the Classroom", available on Amazon Alan came into the room without knocking. He was in his late fifties, his balding head was bowed, his back was stooped. He looked like a lost and wandering spirit. His narrow black eyes were two spheres of night-black marble. The straggling remains of his unkempt black
hair was shoulder-length. He wore a pale grey jumper and old blue jeans. He carried a worn briefcase under one arm and he dragged the soles of his shoes across the floor as he walked across to Riccardo. Alan presented himself in a flat voice, "Hello" "Hi, I'm Riccardo, your coach," replied Riccardo slightly too gleefully, getting up to shake Alan's hand. "Yes, so what do we do?"
