MAIN BODY
TASK 1
1.1 Summarise the responsibilities of a coach, mentor and teacher in relation to working with
individual learners
There is key role teaching in the life of students and there is need of managing the work
and providing effective learning position. It is seen that, serving the requirements of individual
learners is necessary for the teachers so that better learning is provided to them. Every teacher is
important for the success of learners and they have different roles in their life. The responsibility
of mentor are as follows:
Helping the students: It is important to understand the needs and wants of the students
so that better environment is provided to them. It is seen that all the learners have their own
problems and the mentor has to understand the problems of the individual learns (Burke and
Larmar, 2021). The mentor solves their problems and give them solution so that better learning

takes place. This is necessary to motivate the students and to provide them effective learning
situation.
Provide guidance to the learners: The individual learners are in need of advice and
guidance. The mentor know their career goals and mist provide them guidance and actions that
will help them to attain the same. There is key role of working with consistency so that better
learning takes place. It is necessary to always be at side of the learners and motivate them to
achieve their objectives effectively.
The responsibility of coach are as follows:
Promoting learner’s autonomy: making the learners independent is necessary. The
coach has to give order to the learners that will help them to achieve a position that is necessary.
The learners also have their own responsibility that they can achieve by working effectively. The
coach helps them to understand their problems and then take necessary actions to solve the same.
To supervise: All the students work to carry on the assigned duties and there is need to
supervise them. It is important to keep an eye on the work done by them so that they are able to
achieve the same effectively. Monitoring the work is an important task that will help them to
carry on efforts in suitable manner.
The responsibility of teacher are as follows:
Giving impressive learning experience: It becomes necessary to check the learning
experience pf the students. The teacher provides good knowledge of the subject matter. It is seen
that they always use best available technology and resources that is necessary to enhance the
learning experience for the students (Davis, 2021). The engagement activities are necessary to
provide impressive learning experience for the learners.
Evaluating performance: The regular feedback is also necessary to know about their
performance. The teachers provide education to the students and check that they are able to grab
the same effectively or not. It becomes necessary to evaluate the overall position of the students
at the time of learning and check their learning objectives.
2.1 Understand how to select strategies to meet the needs of individual learners
The strategies play a critical role in serving the individual needs of the students. It becomes
necessary to set the actions that are important for the learners so that better practices takes place.
The best suitable strategies help to provide best to the students. There is need of programmes that

are necessary to attain the objectives. The following are the strategies that will help to attain
success:
Developing the creative nature and mind-set of students: It is necessary to provide
creative nature to the students so that they are able to carry on the learning easily. There is need
of understanding the mind-set of the students as the same helps to attain better position. It is
important to provide better learning to all the students in order to satisfy their learning
requirements (Loeng, 2020). This is necessary for meeting the individual learning needs. The
creative nature of teacher is important for the better learning of students.
Using different forms of assessments: There is need of different assessments that helps to
know about the performance and requirements of students. It makes the work of students easy
and they are also able to check their own performance. I use of formative assessment to know
about the working of students on daily basis. The use of summative assessment is important to
know about the position in classroom. It is necessary to meet the needs and wants of students.
Consistency: Being consistent is also one of the strategy that is necessary to enhance the
performance of students. Regular teaching helps the students to lean effectively. The use of
effective resources is necessary to attain better position in learning and achieve success (Patel
and et.al., 2018). I track the performance of the students and guide them to take necessary actions
that are important to attain goals and objectives.
All the above stated strategies are beneficial for the success and growth of students. A
teacher has ability to understand the learner in effective manner and then teach them. The teacher
acts as coach as well as mentor in order to provide best learning experience to the students and
help them in the process of learning.
TASK 2
3.1 Review the resources required for an effective multi-agency approach
Multi agency approach is being used by the teachers in order to provide seamless
experience to the students with different abilities. It is necessary to understand that there is need
of multiple parties such as educators, social services, health workers, parents that helps to
enhance the learning experience of the students. The teachers try to provide best to the students
so that they are able to enhance their skills and knowledge with help all the other support
services. The resources that assist in carrying the work are as follows:
5

Budget: There is key role of funding in carrying the work under multi agency approach.
This helps the teachers to use all the aids for teaching the students so that they are able to
manage the work easily. It facilitates the learning pattern of the learners.
Human resource: To teach the students there is need of human resource that is the teacher
who have ability to understand the learners (Su and Yan, 2022). It becomes necessary to have
best staff members who can lead the team and teach the students in effective manner. The best
teachers have ability to enhance the learning experience of the students via multi agency
approach.
Communication tools: The use of effective classroom teaching tools is necessary to make
the students learn. In today’s time the use of verbal communication in the form of lectures and
other options to present the information are used. The use of notes and other presentation slides
is being done to communicate with the learners effectively.
3.2 Explain factors which influence the referral process
The referral process includes the steps that are undertaken to provide extra assistance to
students with whom hey directly work. The factors that have impact on the process of referral are
as follows:
Skill set of students: The skills of students motivate the students is necessary to undertake
the process of referral. Teachers used programmes that are interactive and creative in nature so
that they are able to learn from the same.
Conflict of interest: If the students have conflicts among them then there are a lot of
problems that takes place. It is seen that the teachers have to manage the working in such a
manner that they are able to attain success at the time of studies.
Preferences of learners: The learners have their own preferences that enhances the need of
referral process (Kushner and et.al., 2019). It motivates the students to learner in effective
manner so that proper learning takes place and there is development of individual learners.
Nature of the learner: It is necessary to understand the nature of the students so that proper
learning takes place. There is key role of providing best environment to the learners so that they
are able to learn effectively.

TASK 3
1.1 Summarise the responsibilities of a coach, mentor and teacher
A teacher has a lot of roles and responsibilities that help them to carry on the work. The
individual learners have to focus on their own requirements so that they are able to develop the
same. It is important to note that the teacher has to act as both mentor as well as coach in order to
provide good working condition so that proper teaching takes place (Powell and McGrath, 2019).
By analysing the requirements of the learner’s better support is providing education to the
learners. It is necessary to provide subject knowledge to the students so that better learning takes
place. Also they require assistance as well as guidance so that learning is facilitated. There is
need of working in such a manner that the students are able to set their goals and objectives and
provide them direction to accomplish the same. It helps the students to learn in effective manner
so that they are able to provide best to the students. The mentors play a critical role in order to
provide best to the students so that they are able to learn properly. This is necessary for success
and growth of the learners. The coach helps to provide the supervision and advice that is
necessary to attain better position. There is need of working in such a manner that real success of
the students attained.

1.3 Review the effectiveness of coaching, mentoring and teaching roles in meeting individual
learning needs
There are various benefits of coaching and mentoring in effective manner. The needs and wants
of learners are understood in effective manner so that they are able to fulfil the same. The
effectiveness is mentioned below:
 Growth and development: The students are able to learn in most preferable manner. It is
important to attain growth and development of the learner. It assists in managing the
overall learning of the students and they are able get promoted to higher classes in
effective manner.
 Achieve goals and objectives: The students have their own career goals that they are
able to achieve in effective manner when they are being provided better learning
conditions (Rahardja, Moein and Lutfiani, 2018). The students require regular motivation
and guidance so that they are stuck to their goals and objectives. It helps them to grow in
the market and achieve success.
 Enhance confidence: There is direct development of the students as they are able to
work with motivation. It manages the work in suitable manner and the level of student
also rises. They become confident ad are able to carry on the process of learning in
effective manner.
 Effective learning environment: The students are provided with effective teaching and
mentoring the students (Paul and Scholar, 2020). They are able to get good environment
that will make them learn in appropriate manner. this is effective for overall success of
the students and their proper development.
4.1 Analyse the impact of organisational requirements and expectations on curriculum practice
It is seen that the organisation wants the teacher to take care about the curriculum. There are
regular changes and updates in the curriculum that the teachers must identify. They help to
provide best to the students so that all the policies and plans are attained. The teacher has to carry
on regular research and know about the changes in the management so that they are able to learn.
There is need of following the code of conduct as this is necessary for universities to teach the
students (Carlson and et.al., 2019). The students are able to analyse a clear path and direction
that will manage the work. There is need of time management so that better results are attained
9

and delivery of lesson is also done appropriately. It becomes important to carry on the work as
per the curriculum so that all the skills are enhanced.
TASK 4
5.1 Analyse the effectiveness of own practice in relation to one-to-one teaching and learning
situations
The individual needs of learners are fulfilled by one to one teaching. There is need of
analysing the learning situation that take place in the classroom and then provide them lessons. I
have analysed that I use VARK model in order to know about the students and their learning
preferences. This makes them learn in effective manner. There are different capabilities of the
students that make them learn in positive manner (Saykili, 2018)(Grimaldi and Ball, 2021). I
always use activities in order to engage all the students in the class. There is key role of engaging
the student and this makes them effective to develop themselves.
There is need of providing best to the students so that they are able to learn properly. It is
effective mode on teaching and focuses on individual learners. It is different from the traditional
classroom and involves supportive environment for the students. Along with that, there is proper
management in one to one teaching so that all the goals and objectives of teaching are attained.
There is less pressure on the student are they are able to communicate every important aspect
with the teachers. The changes in the situation takes place on regular basis so that the use of
proper communication is important. This makes all the students of my class to learn and develop
themselves. I also update my own self for the purpose of enhancing the learning criteria of the
students and provide them best knowledge.
5.2 Identify own strengths and areas for improvement in relation to one-to-one teaching and
learning situations
I have strengths that help me to teach the students in effective manner. Everyone has their
own experience of teaching and I am passionate about the same. This passion makes me
confident and helps me to attain the objectives for the wellbeing of students (Bouic, 2021). I
always focus on teaching the students in effective manner so that they are able to develop their
own selves. The students some time get demotivated and this is the reason they are not able to
learn effectively. But I am able to analyse their requirements and motivate them. I have good
understanding skills that make me know about the problem of the students and help them to
10

develop themselves. There is key role of communication skills and I am able to interact with the
learners properly. The use of proper interaction and communication skills is necessary for the
development of students. I make notes of all the students so that I am able to know about their
strengths and weakness. In today’s time the behaviour of learning has direct impact on their
learning process. I provide good learning conditions in the classroom and that assist me in
teaching the students effectively.
I also possess some of the weaknesses that stop me from attaining my own objectives. I
need to work on them so that all the students around me are able to learn from the same. A
teacher must develop themselves to fullest so that they are able to provide effective learning
experience to the students (Alamri and et.al., 2020). I am bad at managing time and this causes
problems in delivering the lessons. It makes problems for me and also for the students at the time
of learning. Also, I am not able to use latest technology and that stops me from attaining growth
in the education field.
5.3 Plan opportunities to improve own skills in relation to one-to-one teaching and learning
situations
There is need of taking several actions that helps to overcome the weakness to achieve the
objectives. It also assists in attaining the opportunities that are present in the market and working
on them appropriately. Teachers also require some improvements so that they are able to achieve
their targets. The action plan to improvise own skills is as follows:
