Hi, I’m Kristi Cooper—educator, author, literacy consultant, mom of three, and proud grandma.

I’ve spent more than 25 years in education helping teachers create classrooms where every child feels like they belong, and every teacher feels like they can actually do this work well (without working 70-hour weeks). From my time in the classroom, to district-level literacy leadership, to coaching teachers and leading professional learning across B.C., my passion has always been the same: supporting educators with real tools, grounded research, and just the right amount of encouragement and laughter.

I love designing learning frameworks that simplify the complex, make space for all learners, and bring joy back into planning. I’ve worked as a Literacy Specialist, Classroom teacher, and as a Director of Teaching & Learning (K–12, all subjects), but no matter the role, I’m always most energized by helping teachers feel seen, supported, and successful.

Outside of work, you’ll find me reading children’s books (yes, even when no kids are around), experimenting in the kitchen, or spending time with my busy, beautiful family. I’m a big believer in laughter, good friends, and the power of a well-timed check-in or word of encouragement, the kind that reminds you you’re not in this alone.

I’m here to cheer you on, help you make time for what matters most, and remind you: you don’t have to do it all, you just need the right support.
