”they become a blessing in their learning path”. Absolutely right Monica, such a brilliant article. I do like how you emphasize the fact that with neurolangauge coaching, learners do feel it’s safe to make mistakes, then being willing to embrace them and learn from them, the brain friendly environment.
As a trainer, one of the things I do is a game called ‘talk rubbish’ where each learner should come up with broken sentences, the more broken, the worse the better. We laugh at them, at each other and have fun. Then work on correcting our language.
As a learner, well, I’d rather choose when and how rather than being told off, say in front of a group. Unless, it’s a reading lesson and it’s occasional correction.
Thanks again for the wonderful article Monica.

Dear, Jacob. THANK YOU, for your beautiful comment. If fact if we did not make mistakes we could not learn. For me the verb “fail” implies that the result is not the expected one, therefore it is an unwanted result from a wrong action. AND, the “mistake” IS the wrong action. Therefore, when we “make mistakes” we also know how to fix them. Our coachees might be unaware of this super-power-they-already have and we as NeuroLanguage Coaches® have the needed tools and vision to help them to awaken this awareness, this super-power they already have inside of them and use it. To make the story short (sorry), when our coachees “make a mistake” they learn from it AND know how to fix it on their own thanks to our indirect coaching powerful questions. Our coachees also learn through failure and making mistakes not only by doing the expected and following the linguistic rules. To sum up: Welcome on board mistakes. We are happy to have you near and learn from you! Best wishes, Mònica
You are very welcome. Surely, it’s all about putting in practice and demonstrate how mistakes are embraced and learnt from, thus the cycle of learning is complete. No need to be sorry though, the story can always keep going.
