Peer Coaching: Recording on Learning Buddy Coaching

Peer Coaching with Mrs. Faiza Ikeda

I had a peer coaching and would like to describe this coaching process a little for my personal record.

I named it as “Getting Started”. We had a design and discovering session before getting started. In this session, we figured the structure out, included how the process will be, how long and what time…etc.

The coaching process:

1. Pre-preparation (pre-work):

Faiza is very professional and sent me a welcome package (mail) which included a welcome to coaching letter to ask me to write down what I would like to get out of our coaching and two attachments (Wheel of Life Balance and Take the Free RHETI and QUEST Sampler test). The wheel of life balance makes me to review my life, what is the priority in my life. Take the Free RHETI and QUEST Sampler test, this procedure makes me get more understanding of myself. It is really helpful to me during the conversation with Faiza.

2. The process:
a. Concentration/Centralization: Faiza invited me to do deep breath together with her and comfort me to relax myself and feel to have a very safe environment to talk.
b. Asking questions to facilitate me in deep thinking and reflect myself. What, how and when do I want to achieve about the goals which I mentioned to her previously.
c. Having 15 minutes, just talk about “the purpose of my life”.

3. Ending:
a. What do I want to focus on improving and next time, how should we measure it to see the progress?
b. What do I take away through this session?

I really enjoy this session and thank you so much, Faiza!
