Coaching for Students:

It is very difficult for students to motivate themselves academically if they have no idea what type of career they would like to pursue. Career Exploration is available on a one-to-one basis and the objective is to explore career options that match students' interests and natural strengths using specialised tools including Personality Profiling as well as our extensive experience in career coaching and working with students in this area.

We set up a study plan that is tailored to individual student personalities, styles and preferences. This involves looking at the study location and environment, techniques to maximise study productivity, the importance of balance, i.e. building in time for fun, hobbies, sport and "chill out" time. We also discuss techniques for improving memory, mind mapping and other tools and techniques to optimise the study process. Our focus is on studying "smarter" rather than just on studying "harder" or "longer".

The process involves an initial face-to-face coaching session and is usually followed by a fortnightly or monthly telephone coaching session where progress is reported on the initial study plan, successes are celebrated and challenges are discussed and resolved with any required adjustments to the study plan agreed and implemented. This service is about maximising potential in students, getting them into good practices that will support them through second level and third level education as well as in their wider work and personal lives
