Johnny a San Jose State University Student calls himself a self starter entrepreneur, and he can still use a little help and guidance now and then especially when it comes to the daunting challenge of being a student.
So he considers him self lucky to discover life coaching early on; for the past twelve months he has been working with a local executive style coach Peter Khoury (http://www.incontrolcoaching.com/coachingforstudents.htm), who helps him find exactly what he wants in life, set goals, plan his time and balance his work and school life effectively.
Johnny is one of many students and parents who are choosing the coaching option once available only to athletes and executives. “Student coaching is a relatively young field with roots from the corporate world and big sports teams, now finding its way into high schools and colleges across the nation” says Peter Khoury, and it is not to be confused with tutoring or counseling, “coaching is more like the primer and finish paint on the wall of life, everything

else fits in between.” In a coaching session the students figure out where they are now, where they want to be and work on a plan to get there. The plan may or may not include tutoring or counseling, the most important thing is that students get what they want.
Some Coaching benefits reported by students and parents:
Manage time better and get more done in less time.
Figure out what they want to do in life and how to get there.
Brainstorm ideas and make better decisions.
Increase confidence and comfort level with decision making
Explore college and after college strategies and improve chances of success.
Increase chances of graduating on time.
Improved motivation to succeed academically and take the next step.
Be far ahead of peers in terms of goals and direction when graduation time comes.
Make parents happy and proud while staying true to them selves
According to Saskia Knight, Vice President and Dean of enrollment at Chapman coaching is to "provide the student with constant feedback and support. Most critically, they are also provided with additional motivation," She adds, "even the best students (as measured by GPA) are not necessarily all intrinsically motivated. A coach who can provide positive feedback, support and clear objectives makes the student more successful." (University business News, 2005)
An average investment in student coaching could start at $200 per month , “significantly lower than a tutoring cost at centers like Kaplan and Extreme learning Center, parents and students don’t fuss making the investment” says Peter. Parents may have spent thousands of dollars on education, so to spend few hundred dollars a month to not only accelerate their children’s education but to start out their adult life on a better foundation and polish is a valuable investment.
Johnny, getting his degree in business at San Jose State University says, ”at the very least coaching helped me see school as a friendlier place and finishing up my degree as a manageable and enjoyable experience.”
