Self-Reflection and Coaching Sessions Purpose: • To critically analyse successful elements • To target areas for improvement • To establish what has been achieved against set learning objectives • To determine a suitable starting point for the next session
Implementing the Self-Reflection Process Can be implemented in two ways: • In written format - to provide structure & consistency (see following examples) recommended for developing coaches & teachers • Informal basis - mental notes made almost unconsciously by experienced teachers & coaches

Evaluation Documentation • Football Association evaluation form (courtesy of the Football Association) • Liverpool John Moores University lesson evaluation form (courtesy of Liverpool John Moores University) Please click on links within this task to see examples of these forms.
Why is Self-Reflection so Important? • A key driver in your improvement as a coach or teacher • Self-Reflection is a skill increasingly demanded by the teaching & coaching professions (NGB`s) • A very valuable life skill!
A Self -Reflection Process…. Questions to ask yourself after a session: • What went well? • Why did it go well? • What did not go as well as expected? • Why did it not go so well? • What can I do next time to make it go better? • For a session that went well can you make minor adjustments to improve it further?

The Teaching Profession`s View on Self-Reflection • “ We want to encourage teachers, as reflective practitioners, to think about what they do well, to reflect on what they could share with colleagues as well as identifying their own learning needs. ” Quote from A Strategy for Professional Development. Department for Education & Employment, 2001.
What do Professional Coaches Think About Self-Reflection? “ The key thing I think is the openness to learning. I think coaches need to look at things on merit & understand that just because they’ve played the game, they don`t know everything about it …Having a passion to improve is important. Knowing that you are a part of the problem means that you can also be part of the solution. ” Wayne Smith, 2001 (Former All Blacks Coach)
Self-Reflection - Coaching Behaviours to be Nurtured Student Activity: Take 5 minutes to list as many positive coaching behaviours that you can think of that you would wish to retain/encourage in your coaching sessions.
Aids to Self-Reflective Analysis • Standard post-session forms • A coaching diary detailing your thoughts & feelings on sessions • Analysis of videotape of own coaching performance by self or respected others • Peer review (e. g. A coaching colleague) • Coaching mentor • Share ideas/talk through challenges with fellow coaches
Guiding Principles of Reflective Practice • RP is about you & your coaching • RP is about learning from experiences – a conscious & intentional activity • RP is about valuing what you do & why you do it • The reflective conversation is at the heart of reflecting-on-practice • Reflection allows the joining of your values to your coaching actions
