Abstract:
The paper attempts a definition of counselling from the general perspective and then from the educational perspective. Aims of counselling in learning, key guidance services that will ensure effective learning and reasons for needing counselling in schools are all presented looking at their immense contributions to the idea of counselling in schools. Major areas for counselling students are discussed in order to show how they are directly influential to effective learning. Target points for counselling are presented in order to provide a direct focal point that will ensure adequate impact for learning. Last but by no means the least, tips for easy counselling of students are presented for non professionals in order to have smooth working relations when the counsellor is not needed immediately
