Methodological coaching for adolescents and students

Methodological Coaching for Adolescents and Students

Succeeding in studies! The dream of all middle school, high school, and college students.
But how do you go about it when you can’t seem to get to work after a day of classes, when you don’t know how to organize yourself, when you can no longer memorize your lessons, or when you’re constantly stressed?

Methodological or pedagogical coaching is designed for anyone who wants to implement a lasting strategy that leads to better organization in their work for greater efficiency and enjoyment.

More specifically, for young people, the main goals of methodological coaching are to help the young person:

• Be attentive and focused to become an active participant in their learning.
• Learn by understanding how their own memory works.
• Organize themselves to save time and be effective.
• Take care of themselves to become a fulfilled student.

As a coach, whether you’re specialized in working with young people or not, this is a problem you might be called upon to address.
However, this kind of support for young people has specific requirements, meaning the coach needs to be well-equipped.

That is the goal of this kit, in which you will find:

• The process, the specificities, and the different components of methodological or pedagogical coaching for adolescents or students.
• Specific tools to help you guide the young person in understanding their way of learning, defining their learning goals, managing fatigue and stress, and taking action.
