Learning experience
There has to be good learning experience which must be present in me so that there are
right approaches which can be used accordingly and that coaching can get its best outcome. In
learning experience there has to be good interactions which takes place and in those aspects there
is going to be a good functioning and performance which is going to be present. Interactions
according to me is going to help in making sure that knowledge and information is being passed
on in the right form and the doubts are being cleared as well which is going to make the
standards of the coach be higher (Cai, Hwang and Robison, 2019).
Good communication and experience of the right skills is very important so that there are
right actions which are being taken and that is going to be a great factor. When the mentor is
having the best experience to know what has to be done only then they would be able to make
sure that there are right outcomes as well which are being passed on by me. Experience is
making the comfort zone of the learners be higher because there is a different kind of confidence
which is present in making sure that there are right functioning which is taking place.
Theory informs coaching approach
Democratic coaching is a very effective theory which mentors or coaches use so that
there is going to be involvement of all the learners who are present so that the objectives are
being matched. Democratic method is making sure that learners are present in the learning
process and making sure that there are right information which is being passed on from my end
(Coutts, 2020). Approaches make the mentoring be able to take place in one direction which is
making the satisfaction of the mentor and the learners be higher which is a great factor for the
overall working and performance.
Vision of the coach has to be same through out so that there is right working and
functioning which is going to be present. Coaching principles have to be followed essentially so
that the outcomes are going to be as expected which is going to be a great factor for the overall
working. Mentors have to be passing on the right information which is good communication
which has to be present. As a mentor i make sure that there is good comfort ability which is
present from both the sides so that the learning is going to take place effectively and efficiently.
