Coach Mike has been amazing for our 11 year old. Last year evenings were a constant battle to get our son to complete his homework and do simple chores, which was fracturing relationships throughout our family. He started seeing Coach Mike every week and we have seen tremendous results. His grades went from Bs and Cs to As and Bs. He is staying on top of his homework, which dramatically improves our family life! He is more respectful to everyone, is making incremental improvement in interactions with friends, better engages with his siblings and overall seems to be enjoying life more. Coach Mike has done a great job listening to our son, making him feel heard, explaining how his decisions impact those around him, and overall being a non-parental mentor. The results we have seen have been beyond what we could have ever hoped for and Coach Mike is worth every penny plus the drive time!
We highly recommend working with Mike Walker and TEAMS Coaching. Mike worked with our son throughout his high school application process in terms of mindset and helping him prepare for his interviews and entrance exams. With Mike’s guidance and advice, they collaboratively established goals and developed action items for our son to advance to help him achieve his desired outcome (which he did!). As a former school sports coach, Mike also worked on approaches to develop skills in flag football and baseball during our son’s first seasons playing these sports, which helped him excel on the field. Our son also enjoyed the social events and speakers throughout the year.
Through Michael’s years of working with and coaching Teens, not to mention his positive and understanding nature, he is able to help bridge the gap in communication so common between parents and their Teenagers. He has a way of talking with Young people that cuts through a lot of the built-in resistance towards Adults and authority figures and is able to tease out conflicts and issues that they might themselves find hard to process and articulate. We feel very grateful to have found T.E.A.M.S. Coaching.
“We were thrilled to find out that Mike was going to be offering this kind of service with TEAMS Coaching. We felt like it would be the perfect type of support that would benefit our son after graduation from high school. New Way provided him with so much support over the last five years and this opportunity to continue working with Mike, in a 1:1 setting, is the perfect next step for our son and all of us as he works through the transitions to this next phase of life.
We have already seen changes in terms of him feeling more responsible for things around the house he knows he can do as well as taking care of himself. Mike has also been a great support to him as he navigates his first job. Mike worked with him the day before he had a job interview and I could tell how much more confident he felt and said “I already talked to Mr. Walker about it!” when I mentioned practicing to him. As parents, we can talk to them about these things all day long but when he can talk things through with Mr. Walker, someone he trusts and feels comfortable with, it makes all the difference.
The social events are also something we were really looking forward to and Jackson has really enjoyed those too. He was so excited to see some of his friends from school as well as some of his favorite teachers there too. It can be tough when you transition out of high school and all of the friends and teachers you are used to seeing so this has been such a great way to keep those relationships going and to let him know that he still has that support.
I would recommend Mike and TEAMS to anyone considering this for their kids!”
At first, our son was hesitant to participate in this program, but after his first meeting with Coach Walker, everything changed. Now, he absolutely loves it. Coach Walker’s guidance has been pivotal, fostering remarkable progress. The dynamics between our son and Coach Walker have been extraordinary. Coach Walker’s unwavering support, understanding, and guidance have played a pivotal role in our son’s growth and development.
The program’s guest speakers and social events have added valuable insights and connections. Overall, this program, with Coach Walker’s support and the support of the Junior Mentors, has sparked meaningful growth and friendships with our son. We’re excited about his continued progress in this exceptional program.
With all of the negative messages that our kids receive, it’s great to know our child has a place that focuses on strengthening character & making good choices. As parents, we want the best for our child, but sometimes they just don’t hear what we are saying. Coach Mike is a trusted advisor that gives the same guidance as we do-but in a way that our child ‘hears the message’.
Our family has benefited from TEAMS.
Working with Mike Walker and T.E.A.M.S. Coaching has been an invaluable experience. Our son has and continues to enjoy and gain healthy perspectives from his sessions with Mike and the monthly guest speakers. They have positively impacted his current and future outlook, reminding him that although life can be challenging, never give up and keep putting your best self out there. As parents, we have been extremely grateful for Mike’s third party help, professional connections, and perspectives as we help our son navigate and transition into early adulthood.
