Abstract

Coaching approaches have been explicitly embedded in tutorials at the University of Derby tutorials since 2019, so that students use the talking opportunity that tutorials present as a personalised yet supported ‘thinking space’ to articulate reflections on their programme-wide progress, and aspirations into employability and/or entrepreneurship or further study. This presentation shares the positive impact of coaching approaches on students through university-wide culture change in tutoring philosophy and practices, revealing how facilitating ‘time to think’ in the student experience through conversation can be transformative for student confidence and success.
