    • Celebrate your students’ successes, and honor their inevitable stumbles, giving them a person in their corner along the way
  • Manage the operational elements of your student caseload in a consistent and effective manner

  • Learn Guild’s proprietary coaching techniques, and improve your coaching capability through ongoing learning and development
    • Complete Guild’s coaching training and certification process to become a certified Guild coach
    • Participate in internal training, as well as peer feedback and coaching sessions, in order to meet team and individual student engagement and satisfaction targets
    • Develop an in-depth knowledge of effective coaching techniques, tools, and frameworks to further refine your ability to help your students to succeed
