What is Language Coaching? Language coaching is similar to any other coaching situation whether it be a basketball coach, a personal trainer or a life coach. A coach’s job is not to play the game or do the workout or live the life of the athlete or person, but rather to help create training situations, offer feedback, provide encouragement and give direction to help facilitate the most effective and efficient learning program for each individual. As a language coach, my role is to assist you as a learner: |
- To help you create a personal language learning plan.
- To give you loads of ideas and activities for learning the language.
- To connect you with the best resources for learning.
- To stay encouraged, motivated and excited about learning the language.
- To give you a measure of accountablitily to help you reach your goals.
- To provide a thorugh assessment of your proficency and the methods you are using to learn.
How Does it Work?
As your language coach, I will work one on one to find what works best for you to be the best language learner you can be. We will do this with coaching sessions, meetings of around an hour in which we will review your progress, discuss issues and create action steps for you to work toward. Coaching sessions generally happen via video conference with Skype. We can be weekly, bi-weekly or monthly though some folks just like to meet once to get things off to a good start. What ever works best for you! As part of the coaching program I will also happily field questions you have in between sessions via email.

Testimonials
"When I became an “Empty Nest Expat” I decided one fun goal I would work on was to learn the local language wherever I lived. When I landed in Istanbul, I was lucky to find the “Every Day Language Learner’s Blog.” The author, Aaron Myers, has so much experience learning and teaching language. His tips, via his blog, his emailed Ten Week Journey, and one-on-one coaching has motivated me to take my Turkish learning to the next level. Plus, he can suggest all kinds of terrific free resources to use!"
