The first three sessions of coaching have been very useful as I have found myself more inspired and determined to actually see my goals through, I've known Jacqui several years she has taught me so much about myself and has been coaching me to better my life goals. I am very grateful that Jacqui has chosen me to her student whilst she completes her advanced course.                                                                Jacqui Stocks is the best coach teacher I've ever met😊

Jacqui put me at my ease and explained clearly what was going to happen with the sessions. I am now more aware of my core values and beliefs. Doing the sessions has made me realise that I need to do something I believe in to be fully engaged in it. Some of the sessions were quite challenging but I think that is a good thing as some of the issues are difficult and I tend to avoid confronting them, but Jacqui helped me to explore them in a supportive and positive way. I felt that the sessions were non-judgemental and enjoyable - Jacqui's approach was not heavy or too serious. It was useful to focus on these issues in this time of my life as it makes my future path clearer to me and I feel more positive about the future. It would be useful to me and I would definitely benefit from having further sessions in future but it was a really good introduction to life coaching. Thanks for the opportunity.

Jacqui has helped me realise that the issues I have all connect to past experiences which some I wouldn't have given a second thought about, I have found the coaching very interesting and although I'm still struggling I realise that I can now sort this out in time with further sessions. Having known Jacqui for many years I have also noticed a change in her from doing this course, she has finally found her BLISS so here's hoping that by having coaching we can all find ours in time too.

“I began life coaching with Jacqui as I have suffered from a few issues for a number of years that had crippled my self-esteem.  Jacqui helped me to recognise my own strengths & resources and to use NLP & visualisation techniques to acknowledge the past but move forward with positivity.  Although I have only had a few sessions so far, it has had a profound impact on my life and I am immensely grateful.

Jacqui has been my mentor/coach for two academic years and I have found her to be an empathic, caring and empowering individual. Through using creative techniques, such as making an inspiration board, and imparting wisdom Jacqui has encouraged me to foster a more positive outlook on life, increasing my coping skills and enabling me to move forward to tackle new challenges with confidence. With Jacqui's intervention and support I have greater insight that has helped me achieve my goals both in education, and in my wider life.

My name is Nick, I am a qualified teacher with QTLS status and I am also a qualified Counsellor. I have worked for a range of organisations ranging from Teaching organisations, to a rehabilitation centre for drugs and alcohol, to delivering counselling in people’s homes for a company that believes in making counselling affordable. I am currently in a place where I am setting up my own private practice as a counsellor. Jacqui has been an influential part of my life for several years now. My journey with Jacqui started when she taught me on an Access to Social Work course. Jacqui was always very person centred in her approach and what I mean by that is our relationship and the qualities of it were the ingredients of success.  Jacqui always pushed me just that little bit further, when even I would perhaps just settle for a mark, she would push just that little bit harder, so I got the best out of myself. Just before I took up my teaching job I was in a position of transition and I didn't quite know which way to go, I remember seeing Jacqui and she made me look at the bigger picture and introduced me to Wayne Dyer and the Power of Intention. This taught me to trust the Universe a bit more and identify that if I am on a path the chances are it’s the right one. When I started teaching Jacqui was there for me again supplying me with teaching materials and offering encouragement. It would seem that our relationship was destined to continue when a couple of years later we were teaching on the same course and even then I would witness the learners we shared, always  speaking so highly of their experiences with Jacqui, if I hadn't experienced it myself I would probably envy it, but as I had experienced it myself I completely understood it.

In more recent times Jacqui has been there for me in my latest stage of transition from a teacher to a counsellor. Even today she identifies things in me that I don't identify myself, she has been an inspiration in setting up my online presence for my own business. she has helped me find my own self confidence again and showed me the way to creating a website I absolutely adore and am proud of. I don't see Jacqui every day sometimes I don't see her for several months but when I do she is a beacon of light reminding me of everything positive in me and the universe. I truly believe she will be an inspirational positive influence on me forever.
Thank You Jacqui

As my mentor Jacqui has been an invaluable support, motivating me when at times tasks have appeared insurmountable, and using visualisation techniques so I do not lose sight of my hopes, aims and future goals. As a person she comes across as caring, knowledgeable, trustworthy, professional and dedicated, it feels easy conversing with her even about personal circumstances, making it possible for me to open up and be myself, thus facilitating personal growth and resulting in productive sessions. Without having a mentor as skilled as Jacqui I feel I would not have gained conviction in my abilities and have grown in confidence as has occurred. Since having regular sessions with her my life has changed for the better because she has helped me see the valuable traits within and the skills I have to offer, I have greater awareness of my creativity and renewed positive energy.

As a student for over a year, I have to say she is the most patient and considerate of an individuals' needs and abilities. She is very passionate about what she does and encourages individualism and progression of all of her students. Jacqui is very reliable which is a lot to be said for tutors, as I have had a few and she definitely has never let me down ever.

Jacqui is consistent in her work. I have the upmost respect and admiration for her and the knowledge she has across all fields i.e. literature, understanding, theory of human life, the ability to support and communicate with ASD individuals. She has showed consideration and is very thoughtful in individual difficulties across all aspects of their lives. She puts all and more of her time into guiding individuals into getting the best possible outcomes for them. Jacqui's moto is 'If you want it bad enough, you will succeed'. And she will support you every step of the way to achieve your greatest potential.

She is a very warm and gentle person and will take things at your pace. You will not be disappointed in Jacqui tutoring you, if you require it.

For the past two and half years Jacqui has been my mentor, she has supported my essay structure and has help me to improve my literacy skills. The grades have gone from 40 to 65 me. I would not have passed or graduated with a 2.2 without her. she was very patient with me and explained what I was doing, then helped me to find the correct structure of sentences, so others would understand my ideas more clearly. Jacqui has been very kind and I am glad to have worked with her. I thank her for all the time which she spent making sense of my work.
