How educators build trust with students, by following ICF Coaching Guidelines
Mirroring and matching may come naturally to you and you may already know that you change you communication depending on the student, you speak differently when talking to different students. This adaptation usually promotes good communication, and is felt in a cosy sensation of "trust" in your belly.
