Teaching to Coaching is the memoir of Usha Mangipudi — a teacher who spent over three decades in classrooms, staffrooms, and school offices across India, before discovering her true calling as a coach.
From her first day facing twenty-eight children in an Army School, through years of building schools, leading teachers, and guiding students through board examinations, Usha's journey is one of quiet transformation. Each role — teacher, principal, coordinator, auditor — deepened her belief that education is not about marks but about people.
When the COVID-19 pandemic revealed a silent crisis of teacher burnout and exhaustion, she found her purpose: supporting the people who hold education together. Today, her mission is simple — Calm Classrooms, Confident Teachers.
Warm, honest, and deeply human, this book is for every teacher, leader, and lifelong learner who believes that transformation is possible at any stage of life.
