About the lesson

My teaching methods specifically depend on the athletes and the sport I coach. Every athlete learns effectively in a specific and unique way. It is my job and responsibility as a coach and educator to get to know and understand the athletes, what they wish to improve in their sport, how they prefer to be taught, i.e. teaching approach. Therefore, I have a very flexible coaching style that differs based on the specific needs of every team/athlete.
I try to give as much positive and constructive feedback as possible, however for me it is important to allow the athletes time to execute drills and perform their sport skills in order for them to develop the autonomy to resolve their own mistakes by emphasizing decision-making.
I use a lot of questioning feedback techniques to my athletes in order to put them in context about their performance. This allows them to develop adequate problem-solving skills and creativity.
