Our Partners
Our founder
EKC founder Erin Kent consults with international schools around the world using a customized "made-for-you" approach to education.
Teaching literacy in urban, independent, and international schools before becoming a literacy coach, Erin worked for many years with educators on their need customized initiatives in literacy. As a PK-12 Director of Curriculum and Instruction, she led a team of 13 instructional coaches and advised administrators on establishing data-based educational programs. She found that schools' literacy models need to fit into their unique international context; what works in Doha doesn't work in South Africa. What works in Shanghai doesn't necessarily work in Sao Paulo.
In founding EKC, Erin helps leverage tools and tips for literacy methodology, coaching, curriculum development, and leadership through consultation, programming, and speaking engagements all over the world. When she's not with fellow educators or students, you can find her pouring over the latest literacy book to spark new ideas to use inside the classroom. As Erin Lillis often says, "we're using the word to lift the world."
