More About Test 1

As far as I can get 70% correct, I can pass Test 1 and one step closer to IAC-CC designation.

Coaches attended the IAC HK Chapter 's Apr meeting see things differently. Here are some of their findings after we have gone through the drilling on the sample test.

  1. There is always a tactic to do multiple-choice test smartly and get passed. Yet, I choose not simply focusing on the passing rate (70%) but to carefully look in to the masterful message behind each question and its answer.
  2. I came to recognize the language pattern in coaching in English. As a Chinese coach, "cheerleading" sounds a very strong ecoragement towards the client. However, it is considered at the superficial level. Instead, "support" and "champion" implies a strong connection in the coaching relationship.

Coach Bonnie's hints to the coaches:

  1. Treat Test 1 as a warm up for Test 2. Enough stretching work out before the running race or a basket-ball game, reduces injuries. WHY? Your body is flexible enough to support any vigorus action.
  2. Understanding the inter-woven beauty of the masteries. How could you be masterful in Masteries 2? Well, stire-fly Masteries 1, 3,4 and 5 with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Done!
  3. Just thinking how to get passed in Test 1 wont help. Give yourself a chance to experience Test 1 as a coaching session. Isn't US$37 too cheap for the learning opportunity? Purchase for 2 sessions is never a lost to anyone.
