Why NLP & education?

Personal trainers, personal tutors, life coaches ... Everyone's getting one! From A- list celebrities to successful business professionals to 'joe-bloggs'. Personal trainers to enhance our physical fitness/motivate us to be fit and healthy, personal tutors to help us enhance our knowledge and life coaches to help us change our life and become more successful.  Everyone's raving about how great these 'coaches' are - so why do we not instinctively and routinely offer such help to our youngsters!? Help them learn about themselves and how they learn.

Young people have different needs and priorities, and often approach life and tasks differently to adults; but they too can benefit from the same kind of support and techniques used by life coaches. The youth NLP education coaching program is specifically designed with young people in mind and can enhance learning so that the learner reaches their full potential.

Give your child the opportunity to reach the potential you know they have.

How is NLP used in education?

How many parents say that they know their child has potential, but they just don't seem to be achieving their best in school? How many parents - and children - are disappointed when end of term reports come out and write that the exam results let them down?

Our current state education system presupposes that children know how to learn, but many bright, intelligent children actually devise learning strategies that are ineffective and confusing, and result in them achieving below their potential; Dyslexia is a good example of this.  Many children and young people take failure personally and assume there must be something wrong with them. They start to devalue learning and school and believe that they are stupid.  They give up trying to learn because they always seem to get the same ineffective results. 

 


Some children find it hard to learn because the teaching methods aren't suited to their dominant learning style

Dyslexia & other learning difficulties

Using visual learning techniques and NLP it is possible to help young people diagnosed with dyslexia and other learning difficulties.

In a few sessions we can help improve spelling and reading, develop new learning strategies, and overcome the effects of years of negative feelings about themselves and their learning


Building confidence & self belief

For many children and young people, school and learning can be a time of stress and emotional anxiety.  A lack of confidence, low self-esteem, big schools, large class sizes and a lack of resources or support from appropriate staff, are all major factors in why many young don't meet their potential. NLP can help these students; raise confidence and self-belief to enable them become the best that they can be.

Improving performance - making a good student into a great student

At the other end of the scale, NLP can help turn a good student into a great student.  Many private and independent schools are using NLP to increase their student's exam, study and learning skills and overall performance!

What is NLP?

NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) is a relatively new concept, developed in the mid 1970's by linguist John Grinder and Gestalt Therapist Richard Bandler, inspired by some of the greatest therapists and thinkers of their time, and explores the relationships between how we think (neuro), language and how we communicate (linguistic) and our patterns of behaviour and emotions, and how we achieve our goals (programs). It is based on the belief that we are 'programmed' by our past experiences, sometimes in ways that support us and sometimes in ways that limit us.


NLP is a way of studying our thoughts, languages, emotions and behaviour patterns, identifying which are effective, and changing those that are counter-productive. NLP techniques can be used in a variety of contexts; generally it is used to help people overcome negative emotions, past traumatic events, fears and phobias.
