The tone and wording of a Tip are as important as the technical advice
itself. Players look for guidance that is clear, supportive, and simple to
apply. A positive voice builds confidence and encourages action, making the Tip
easier to follow.
Jargon or technical language should be avoided. Plain words are more
effective because they can be understood and remembered without explanation.
Keeping the message simple aligns with the principles in
Delivering Great Tips.
Advice should always be framed constructively. Rather than dwelling on what
went wrong, explain what the Player can do differently. One clear step,
expressed directly, is more valuable than a list of corrections.
Each Tip should feel personal and respectful, as if the Coach were standing
alongside the Player. If clarification is needed, the
Clarification
Process provides the correct path, rather than extending the exchange
inside the Tip itself.
Ending with a short summary of the action to try next helps the Player
retain and apply the guidance. Positive, straightforward wording also supports
fair evaluation in
Ratings & Reviews, ensuring
the Player can connect the message with their progress.
