Student Coaching
Tackle your challenges...
Navigating Your Studies
We offer precious support to teenagers and students to overcome their problems at high school, college and university.
Problems at school or university? Poor concentration? Exam nerves? Poor grades? Lack of self-confidence? Losing interest in studying? – Our coaching helps people in education to find the motivation and perseverance they need to complete their studies.
The hassles at school
Many hurdles can make your educational path difficult, including
- unpleasant episodes at school or in your studies
- a lack of motivation
- uncertainty about what you really want
- fear of exams and failure
- difficult relationships
- too much screen time
- difficulty managing your emotions
- lack of self-confidence
In such situations, our support will help you to (re)find a positive mindset and confidence.
Benefits of student coaching
Once caught up in a negative spiral, successive moments of failure and frustration come easily.
Our coaching aims to help you
- find new motivation for your education,
- rebuild your self-confidence
- gain enough perseverance to continue your studies,
- develop effective strategies for navigating through your challenges
- and develop a motivating outlook.
In short, you'll receive precious support to deal with your daily challenges in a pleasant way.
Our coaching
During our first session, we'll look at your situation and your goals for the coaching process. In many cases, we suggest you take our personality test beforehand, which will give you valuable insights into your personality and learning style.
In the following sessions, we'll work on the necessary tools that will help you to achieve what you wish for. We'll see each other as often as you see fit, normally for one to four sessions, each lasting between 60 and 90 minutes.
Alternative to tutoring
Our coaching is not about catching up on school material as in tutoring, but about finding a learning strategy that respects the unique personality of each student. Our support focuses on the abilities, strengths and ways of doing things of each individual person. As a result, everyone finds their own way of managing their education.
Our way of coaching
Your coaching is done in a pleasant and supportive atmosphere. You can trust our methods to achieve the results you wish for.
We focus on your strengths and potential, without analyzing and judging your past. That means we look at where you are now and what you could be doing differently today.
You can rest assured that what we talk about stays between us and won't be shared with anyone without your permission. You're the captain who decides where to go, and we have no intention of steering you in a direction that isn't yours.
Coaching for neurodivergent individuals
Our coaching is particularly suited to people with autism, ADHD and a high IQ. Our coach Beát Edelmann is himself neurodivergent on different levels, and knows first-hand the challenges faced by people who function differently from the majority.
