Coaching is included with all Symboliser purchases for more than 5 users.
Coaching is designed to help you and your colleagues to get the most out of using symbols, and to incorporate it with what you are already doing with the minimum amount of effort.
Coaching is run online in small groups.
The coaching sessions are run in two parts:
- Part 1: coaching to support your own use of symbols
- Part 2: coaching to support your coaching of other members of your team
Currently, coaching is focused on teaching in mainstream settings (primary, secondary, and college). Do let us know if you would like coaching for use in a different setting.
Part 1: coaching to support your own use of symbols
Three sessions
45 minutes – 1 hour in length
Participants talk through or show examples of how they have used symbols in their teaching.
We will explore want went well, any difficulties that came up, and aspects participants would like to get better at.
Part 2: coaching to support your coaching of other members of your team
Introductory session – 1 hour in length
Three further sessions
45 minutes – 1 hour in length
Once you feel confident in your own use of symbols, we offer this coaching so that you can support other members of your team to use symbols.
This will help maximise the benefits for students of symbols and to ensure a consistent approach.
