What does SKILLS Coaching Academy do?

Solution-focused coaching and training to children, youth, parents and professionals toward personal Growth & Happiness.

What does SKILLS Coaching Academy consider important? 

Being able to be yourself and grow to make your dreams come true. In particular, it involves questions such as: Who am I, what can I do and what do I want, contributes to your life's happiness and that of others. Thus, together we can contribute to a world in connection.

What does SKILLS Coaching Academy think of Studied?

Studied is an added value to parents, especially to bring peace to family life when it appears that their children need support and guidance in their school careers. You take control of an important and often stressful growth aspect of parents with customized guidance. Happy parents, happy children!

Why do we work together? What does SKILLS Coaching Academy find valuable about our collaboration? 

We enjoy working with Studied because they carry the same values and bring professional, affordable services tailored to the child. That customization translates into our collaboration in which we look together at what skills contribute to the growth of the child/youth. That tuning in together, being each other's sounding board and our complementary expertise makes our collaboration valuable.

What can students expect from our collaboration? 

Students can expect that we always coordinate and consult with each other about what support and guidance is most useful for at this time. Thus, together we ensure that the student takes the right step in his growth process to achieve his goals.

Students of Studied can attend 'I learn to learn' training at SKILLS Coaching Academy. Why do so many pupils and students not know how to learn and how do they learn it in this in the 'I learn to learn' training?

In my role as a children's coach, I have had the opportunity to assist many children and adolescents in learning how to learn. The fact that many children and young people do not know how to learn is simply because they are never questioned themselves about what works for them. In the training 'I learn to learn', the pupils/students discover what their manual is to learn easily and efficiently and achieve satisfied results. This eliminates stress and gives them a grip on learning.

In our offerings, we also offer your training on "Planning and Execution. Why is it important to be able to plan and execute well? 

Planning and executing ensures that pupils and students have an overview which prevents stress. For some, planning goes naturally well and for pupils/students who often forget something and want to do everything by heart, it is helpful to strengthen this skill. Executing your planning requires strengthening other skills such as decisiveness, discipline and perseverance. Discovering for yourself which skills you can and want to strengthen and how you do that gives you a grip on your planning and execution.

Because we see that many students lack motivation, we also offer SKILLS Coaching Academy's Motivation training. Why do many students suffer from a lack of motivation?

What students tell me is that they don't see the point of what they have to learn, they perceive the lessons as boring or don't click with the teacher. In my experience, these are usually hidden messages that hide the real reason...no motivation because they don't know what and how to learn. For me, training is about tapping into people's self-healing ability. You can only change yourself, and so we engage with pupils and students with lack of motivation to find that motivation together and teach them how to do the same for themselves.

Ultimately, we guide students to make a point of getting failing grades on tests and exams. That's why we also offer your training in "exam and test preparation. What do they learn here? 

The training is about dealing with stress. Stress actually causes students to block or get stuck. Discovering what causes the stress and, more importantly, how to manage the stress helps students and students achieve better performance, such as getting better grades on tests! 

Students can of course also come to you for general coaching. In what other contexts can you help students? 

SKILLS Coaching Academy coaches children in their personal growth when they experience difficulties mentally, at home, at school, at work or in their sports talent development. So there are many opportunities!
