• If he teaches something coaching to a person is to realize how to take responsibility.

• If a student at risk of school failure needs something, it is to take responsibility.

When a student is not giving everything he is capable of delivering, it can be for various reasons, including They highlight the tendency to blame something external and to think that he cannot go where they ask him to, give up and throw away the towel.

Coaching against school failure

A Coaching process can help a student to get out of a situation of risk of school failure very quickly

. The coach helps him see that he can act in different ways despite having the same circumstances. He will realize that it is up to him to choose a victim attitude or a protagonist attitude. Despite external conditions, they can never deprive him of being the protagonist of his life.

The search for the student's affinities and interests, which many parents intelligently encourage, not only serves to know how he can occupy his leisure time. It serves as an indicator of what he is looking for in his life, and what he excels at. Discovering through Coaching that you can search for it by yourself, in addition to the process of finding it, connect you with your motivation.

Each student, including the one who is at risk of school failure, unknowingly hides a potential that makes them unique. Nature has given it to him, so that he can contribute the best of himself, of what others do not do so well, of his quality. The job of the coach is to help the student to look for that quality, which is nothing other than his own potential, and from then on he will learn to perceive and manage it himself.

The potential of each student

Helping each student and also each person to find it within himself is one of the pending matters, not only from school, but from society. This potential will benefit your work, every system you are or will be a part of in the future, and most importantly, your happiness.

Let's continue with a reflection: If we really believe that some of the subjects you are studying are not going to be of use to you in the future, how can we expect the student himself to believe it? Many of us believe that the educational system will change sooner or later, to include subjects such as emotional intelligence and at the same time stop including theoretical knowledge that does not contribute as much as thought to the future of the student. But this change of model is no longer the responsibility of the student.

What is your responsibility?

The student realizes that the educational system is not perfect. He discovers that, in order to reach his dream, he must pass within this imperfect system, and so he chooses to do so. He makes the decision. And it is that the educational system is primed on those students who give up.

The Coach helps him discover his own personal method of taking responsibility for the situation and doing all that he can do, which turns out to be a lot. At the moment in which he takes responsibility, things occur to him that did not occur to him before, because the first step to follow the path of his dream and realize it, is to take responsibility. The student is aware that the only thing that is in his power is her attitude, and that this change in attitude is both sufficient and necessary to change the situation. This gives you a more realistic vision and at the same time empowers you to commit yourself to get out of that situation.

It is not about changing your vision of studying and transforming it into a more pleasant activity to get a pass, but about helping you realize the purpose that pursues the student. study, and thus help you find, from that perspective, your personal way of managing how to do those tasks, without feeling it as an obligation, but by your own decision.

If we treat them like adults, they will thank us and return mature behavior, showing that they are capable of assuming responsibility.the responsibility of his life.
