1.7. Teacher counselling involves the use of the same counselling
approach for all learners, regardless of their backgrounds, so that the
process is fair and equal.
Considering a learner’s background also means that counsellors should
attempt to adapt their interviewing skills and choice of counselling approach to
suit the learner’s personality and culture.
1.8. A solution-focused approach to counselling involves a search for
events that will show the belief that “something is wrong” with a person
to be false.
A solution-focused approach to counselling allows clients (learners) to see that
they are resourceful, capable and skilled. It enables learners to rely on
themselves and use their strengths to bring about change. It gives them ideas
for solution descriptions that change the pattern of the problem. The solution
focus “empowers people to take action and change, rather than blame the
system or others and wait for change to happen”(Von Cziffra-Bergs 2018:7).
