Coaching for Effective Learning: A practical guide for teachers in health and social care

Maria-Teresa Claridge,Tony Lewis

Coaching for Effective Learning adopts a practical how-to-do-it approach based on the real-life training experience of the authors. The methodology can be applied to a wide range of learning environments such as one on one apprenticeships mentoring supervision small group work and lecturing. The book considers the adult learning process and recognises different individuals’ learning patterns adapting participants’ current skills to address new challenges. Undergraduate and postgraduate health and social care teachers and lecturers will find this book a very useful resource as will general practice trainers mentors appraisers and supervisors. It will also be of interest to healthcare professionals interested in self development. ‘Three messages resound throughout this text. Firstly curiosity is a good thing for coaches (and doctors) to cultivate. Secondly learners (and patients) are intrinsically self-directing and self-motivating. Thirdly although there may be a formal relationship between coach and pupil (or doctor and patient) the best things happen if the parties are free not to behave in formulaic or role-determined ways. These messages are not truisms. I think they are the truth.’ Roger Neighbour in his Foreword ‘[This book] provides practical ways to bring coaching into the classroom.’ Jan Elfline in her Foreword
