Focus on the Results

As you develop your coaching skills, you may meet resistance from your colleagues, you students and yourself. You will have moments of doubt. When that happens, focus more on the results that you want to see in your classroom. You are welcome to reach out to the other course participants using the Teachers Questions and Answers Forum.

Courage and Persistence

This course is not a quick-fix solution. This course guides the ongoing development of your natural caring, communication with your students.

This course may well take you several months to complete. For each Step, the learning cycle of reading, experimenting and reflecting on the results can take several weeks. There is no need to rush.

Take Small Steps

We recommend that you set a time in your diary to come back to this course once or twice a week, for about 30-50 minutes each time.

Reflective Practice

We have seen that teachers who reflect on what they are doing, writing their thoughts, ideas and feelings into a journal gain the most from this course.

We strongly recommend that you keep a journal.
