About Ruby

Dr. Ruby J. Stevens-Morgan
Positive Psychology Coach for Teachers

Ruby Stevens-Morgan has spent her entire professional career in education, from secondary schools and colleges to education agencies and organizations that support educators.
As a teacher, Ruby wanted to better understand why some students seemed to “get it” while others struggled. That curiosity led her to earn a Ph.D. in Educational Psychology and deepen her understanding of the science of learning.
Today, she focuses on coaching early-career teachers because she understands the challenges they face and the impact teachers have on the students they serve. Her work helps teachers understand the totality of who they are, leverage their Character Strengths, and navigate daily challenges with greater intention and less stress.
Bottom line, Ruby cares about students. And she believes getting the best outcomes for students starts with having effective teachers in the classroom.
