About Debbie Diller

Debbie has been a national consultant since 2000 but still has those back to school dreams in the fall. After playing school in the basement of her childhood home in Lititz Pennsylvania she earned her bachelor's and master's degrees in education from Millersville University and Temple University and spent the next four decades as an educator. She's worked as a classroom teacher migrant education teacher Title I reading teacher and literacy coach in Pre-K through grade 10 in diverse public school settings. Her love of teaching stems from her love of learning. I have always loved learning. Becoming a teacher was a way I could share that love of learning with children and eventually with adults. A big part of her learning is listening to teachers and their professional development needs. When I work with teachers I try to understand their needs by finding out what they know and listening to their questions. Then I begin where they are and work with them to help them take the next steps toward where they (and/or their school systems) want (them) to be. I believe in professional reading and professional learning communities and support teachers in their quest to best meet the needs of all students in their classrooms. Debbie's ideas for her books also come from her work with teachers. She listens for frequently asked questions patterns teachers' needs and keeps a writer's notebook to collect ideas thoughts and notes. Often the old joke comes to mind: how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. That's how I write: Bit by bit on planes in hotel rooms in my office on a rare day. Teachers' questions and comments spur me on through my daily ongoing work in classrooms which sustains my craft. Debbie's family has changed and grown in recent years. Her son Jon and daughter Jessica are both married and she now has a granddaughter Chloe with another on the way. Debbie's husband Tom passed away in 2012.
