Have a clear picture of what it is would like to accomplish through the coaching relationship. Then, use these directories to find a coach. Ask potential coaches these questions.
Most coaches are familiar with different learning and processing styles, but be sure to ask about their knowledge in this area and age groups they tend to work with. Typically, individuals naturally interact better with others who have the same preferred way of processing information, but that does not necessarily mean that you would not do well with a coach who departs from that.
An adult may seek a coach to help them advance in their careers when planning and organization skills aren’t there. Similarly, coaches often specialize to fill certain client needs – some specialize in clutter control and others in time management. Making sure you find a good match for your specific needs is an important step, so have your child assess their needs carefully, or make sure you are properly assessing your younger child’s needs.
