I have experience of mentoring and coaching throughout the world across many cultures and most continents.
I have been involved in mentoring and coaching for over 40 years, initially as a teacher for 14 years and subsequently as University tutor and teacher trainer. I have mentored and coached hundreds of trainee teachers, I have trained hundreds of school-based mentors and monitored their work, I have received Grade 1 Outstanding from OFSTED for my leadership, I have written and taught courses on mentoring and coaching at post-graduate level across the globe and most recently written chapters on mentoring and coaching, leadership, CPD and work-based research for Sage's SENCO Handbook: Leading provision and Practice (2019)
I can offer one-one-one personal coaching, as well as group coaching in organisations. I can also train coaches, set up coaching schemes and monitor them.
I am interested in the role of writing/journaling for well-being, have just run a workshop (October 2019) at the Sunderland Literature Festival and host a writing for well-being monthly workshop. I also have an interest in writing/journaling for spiritual wellbeing
