This question has always lingered in my mind as to how i would like to present and share information to my PE students.
After study and research i stumbled acroos a website called "Sport Coaching Brain" which outlines 101 coaching tips which i believe is extremely helpful to a teacher as well.
The ideas that caught my attention were:
- plan
- develop communication skills and never stop trying
- learn to use technology
- never stop learning
- be open-minded
- accept criticism
- allocate time
- steal ideas from other sports
- develop coach idependent athletes
- listen with eyes and watch with ears
- coach person not performance
- communicate - clearly, concisely, calmly and constructively
- be willing to share
- be enthusiatic
- be flexible
- do your homework
- inspire your athletes.
This website was influential and I believe a great source to refer to as a beginning coach or teacher entering the sporting industry and stuck with how to present their ideas and share information to their team and class.
