The psychology of coaching, mentoring and learning is an exciting and rapidly expanding area.However, psychology's contribution to certain fields is often overlooked and the field of coaching and mentoring is no exception.For example, many coaching courses teach students how to coach by using a basic model or structure on how to hold a conversation with a client.One example is the GROW model, which is a useful acronym standing for Growth, Reality, Options and Will (or Wrap-up).In addition courses usually include a range of listening and communication skills.
