Testimonials:

"Choices Coaching has done a brilliant job with some of our most challenging students."  Senior Teacher, Woodkirk Academy

"I have enjoyed my coaching and it has worked for me.  I'm not going to let myself down now I know what I want to do.  The coaching has helped me to think about how I can do things differently and I've enjoyed the exercises.  I have also benefitted from having someone listen, it makes me feel better about things."  Student, Woodkirk Academy

"It's been good.  It's helped me control my anger by understanding why I get frustrated and how to talk things through with a teacher.  It's also helped to control my anger at home.  Coaching has helped me to be more focused in lessons.  I've enjoyed coming to the sessions and I have enjoyed having someone to speak to about anything."  Student, Morley Academy

"As a result of the coaching I view my work in a different and much more positive way.  I now understand how to approach my work in a much more effective way.  I have enjoyed being understood and not being viewed in a negative way because of my 'perfectionist' traits.  I have also enjoyed talking to Denise - she is a lovely woman."  EL, Wakefield

"I feel like the coaching has made me a lot better in person and helped me understand what I can do.  It's made me realise what I want to do and I'm a lot more confident.  I don't let things or people get to me because I know it's not worth it.  I've enjoyed the coaching and my Mum has seen a difference in me and I know she's happy about that."  AS, Leeds
