The Oropo Leadership Coaching Course is not just another course, but a must do training for anyone who wants to improve his or her leadership role and balance his teaching career, so as to impact meaningfully on his/her students.Personally, I enjoyed most the aspect that exposed me to know that I am a leader, and I am being watched by my students/followers and also the aspect that exposed me to the use of technology in teaching.

The coaching course(s) with the Oropo Team so far has been worthwhile. The lessons learnt, the friendly and family-oriented interactions, and the entire experience were real eye openers. The light bulb moment for me was during the part on "Leading yourself" by Dr. Jimoh, when a nugget dropped on my intellect that "Bosses may be born, but Leaders are made". Also, that "Bosses try to show and prove they are in charge, Leaders show you how to be in charge.

Attending the Oropo online leadership coaching course, opened up a total, new and wholistic experience for me as a secondary school teacher. I got to learn that to be a good leader and mentor to teenagers and young adults, I needed to know the importance of first knowing how to lead myself. I learnt that leadership should not be seen as a title, but rather a position of influence because a leader always has watchers.

It was awesome and am still using lessons learnt on leading myself by recognizing my leadership traits and my limits , using word catchers correctly since I am being constantly watched. I am more mindful of my words now than ever. I learnt that Mental wellness is key to my being an effective leader. The advice on that is still being followed especially on practicing stress relieving activities like gratitude journal, music and family time out.

I enjoyed the coaching course because it enabled me to benefit from the experiences of others. And the resource persons were drawn from people who are experts in their fields. I enjoyed the interactions most, followed by the part where people are allowed to interpret pictures/photos based on the messages they are getting from the images. I also enjoyed the fact that the contents are centered on the development of the participant first. One cannot give what they don't have.

The quality of instructors, materials, sessions, breaks were all building blocks to what actually seems to be awaiting my new assignment. Before the training, I nearly turned down the new assignment offer. In fact, afterwards, I left that training with zeal & agility and executed a newly founded secondary school for my organization that's now running smoothly to the amazement of the committee and board members.
