Teaching and coaching skills
Journal Title: Nastava i vaspitanje/ Studies in Teaching and Education - Year 2018, Vol 67, Issue 3
Abstract
The purpose of the article is to show how knowledge of coaching skills can help achieve the desired results in pedagogical practice faster and more efficiently. When coaching skills are known by a team of teachers, these teachers can offer each other support in personal and professional growth (collegial coaching). They do not necessarily have to be professional coaches. It is essential that the teacher acting as a coach uses specifically selected questions. These need to encourage their interlocutor to think and find their own solutions to achieve the goal. They must be open and unsuggestive. In this way, the interlocutor will come up with solutions that they would otherwise be difficult, or even impossible for him/her to reach. Conversation, guided by coaching questions, can also help learners with the difficulties they encounter. It is important that the interlocutor wants to solve the problem, the challenge. The case study shows how to use coaching skills, especially coaching questions, in pedagogical practice.
