31 Kathryn Snow 2003 <p> At the Teacher Leaders Network, we define &quot;teacher leader&quot; broadly -- for us, teacher leaders are educators who are interested and involved in work that advances teaching quality and student achievement. They may be full-time classroom teachers who work to build the profession in their schools; they may be individuals who spend part or all of their time in &quot;coaching&quot; or school-based staff development roles -- the descriptions could go on. We recognize that in some school systems and organizations, &quot;teacher leader&quot; is more narrowly defined as an individual who works with other teachers to build their expertise. These comments by teacher leader Kathryn Show (at the TERC/NSF Sustainability 2003 website) address this latter role. After reading her introductory remarks, follow the &quot;read discussion&quot; link to see what Show and other teachers who are in coaching roles have to say about the transition from teacher to &quot;teacher leader. </p> <p> Citation: Snow, K.
