Rodrick Johnson

Rodrick C. Johnson is a literacy coach, doctoral student, founder, and CEO of The Johnson Experience LLC. He specializes in helping teachers find the hidden talents that make them the “CEO of their own classroom experience.” After developing their newfound superpowers, he introduces the teachers to data-informed instruction. This is said to be done to transform them from ordinary to legendary teachers! After spending six years creating unique learning experiences for children, he found a passion for professional development, teacher support, and school leadership.  

In 2020, he became a Great Minds Fellow, which allowed him to start his journey into professional development. The fellowship allowed him to share his unique teacher-supporting style with over 500 teachers and school leaders in the United States. He has supported new curriculum adoptions and coached teachers in 10 states. He is now pursuing a doctorate from Morgan State University, hoping to one day change policy to help teacher preparation.  

Rodrick holds a degree from Coppin State University and a master’s in education from Grand Canyon University.
