Abstract: The Strategic Framework for the Development of Education, Training and Learning in the Republic of Bulgaria (2021-2030) sets new requirements for pedagogical specialists. The realization of person-centered learning depends on the competence of education specialists. One of them is changing the role of the teacher from a source of information to a partner and mentor. The main goal of teaching is to make learning more attractive and practically oriented and to build attitudes for lifelong learning by applying new methods and approaches. In this regard, one of the possibilities to achieve this goal is applying coaching attitudes, models and techniques in the learning process. Some of the main coaching models applied in education are John Whitmore's "GROW" model and Marilyn Atkinson's model. The main coaching techniques used in education are: the coaching wheel, the time line, the scaling technique and the results framework. Coaching models can be applied in individual sessions with a student as well as in the classroom. A teacher in a coaching position believes that everything is okay with each child, they have the resources to cope, they are making the best choices they are capable of at the time, change is inevitable. Coaching in education is an opportunity to improve the learning process. It is also an opportunity to prepare teachers for the challenges of the future.
