Probably the hardest part was coaching in front of the teacher and the whole class. I had to do this 3 times during the 6 months and it's unsettling to do it knowing you're such an amateur and that the class is going to critique you when you're done.

I know other programs vary. I'm only familiar with what I did.
Thank you for that reply annie... it has led me to read this... and get further information on "coaching" ...a profession that I did not know existed until today... so, thanks to you, I will go to bed a little more informed than I was when I got up this morning...

And I wish you all the best in your chosen profession...
