About
Eagle's View Education is an education consulting firm based in Juneau, Alaska, led by JJ Hinderberger, an experienced educator with over 14 years of expertise in teaching, instructional leadership, early childhood education, special education, and higher education. As a lifelong Alaskan, JJ brings a deep understanding of the unique opportunities and challenges facing schools, childcare providers, and early learning programs across the state.
Having grown up in rural Haines, Alaska, and worked in the Alaska public school system, JJ has firsthand experience supporting diverse learners and educational communities throughout Alaska. Her professional background spans a variety of leadership and instructional roles, including Elementary Teacher, Elementary Principal, Special Education Coordinator, District Testing Coordinator, and K-12 English Language Learning Coordinator.
Eagle’s View Education provides individualized education consulting, mentoring, and instructional coaching tailored to the needs of each educator and program. Rather than offering predetermined courses or a fixed curriculum, consulting begins with an intake process to identify the areas where educators would like support. Services may include classroom observation, reflective conversations, modeling, practical strategies, individualized feedback, collaborative problem-solving, and follow-up coaching.
Each engagement is shaped by the educators and program being served. The goal is practical, job-embedded support that educators can apply directly in their classrooms and professional practice.
With a passion for educational equity and a commitment to supporting educators across Alaska, Eagle’s View Education strives to help schools and early learning programs create lasting and meaningful change.

JJ Hinderberger
I was born in Juneau but raised in Haines, Alaska along with my four siblings. I value community, place-based education, and cultural inclusion. I am passionate about education and want to make a positive impact on students, families, and our communities.
While working as both a teacher and a principal, I was always eager for feedback and coaching to improve my practice. I find that we spend so much of our energy and effort on the feedback that we give students that we sometimes neglect educators. In order to best support children, we also have to ensure we are continually growing in our own practice.
I find that the most effective professional learning is relationship-based, practical, non-evaluative, and ongoing. Educational leaders and program directors are often balancing countless responsibilities while also trying to support teachers, staff, children, and families in meaningful ways. Whether in a school or an early childhood setting, it can be difficult to find the time and space for reflective coaching, instructional support, and long-term systems improvement. I remember feeling stretched thin and wishing I could clone myself just to get everything done.
I provide customized coaching, professional development, and instructional support for educators, school leaders, childcare providers, and early childhood programs. My work includes instructional coaching cycles, curriculum development, inclusion and special education support, educator mentoring, and professional learning tailored to the unique needs of each organization. This work is non-evaluative and designed to support educators in being the best version of themselves. When educators and leaders have the support they need, they are better able to help children reach their fullest potential.
I absolutely love the school and early childhood environment and believe in the power of connection, kindness, and positive attitudes. Never underestimate the influence a teacher, caregiver, leader, and entire educational community has on a child's success.
I look forward to working with you!
