My favourite tools from the Coaching Toolbox are the Hierarchy of Competence and the Johari Window.
I had many insights and new awareness through reflecting on my behaviour through the four windows of Johari window. I have had a transformational shift from being a demotivated, angry person to a happier, relaxed person who relates better to other.
This will influence the way I teach from now in that now that I have a better understanding of self and others, my approach and my response to others will be different.
I have learnt that each person has a different level of competency, readiness and motivation. I will listen
To each one carefully and try to hear both the said and the unsaid message. This course has provided me with a better understanding of human behaviour and enabled me to understand my learner’s behaviour and respond by assisting, supporting and channelling their behaviour.
This course was insightful and developed my self-understanding.

I have more insight into my strengths, weaknesses and personality type. The value I got from the training was in the skills I acquired, the realisation I need to be responsible, accountable and knowledgeable and that will empower me to plan, focus, and move faster. The Four intelligences was also valuable to me to apply in teaching the individuals.
I have experienced a transformational shift during the coaching course from pushing the learner that is not able to do something to being patient.
The difference this could make to my learners is that I will give them the chance to explore and the opportunity to make their own decisions in their work and also for them to come up with the own solutions independently.
I would appreciate more workshops.
