Coaching is a new feature added in the March 18, 2011 Patch for the Team Fortress 2 Beta. Coaching gives the ability for a player to call (by pressing the whistle icon in the Escape menu) for a volunteer to help them in the battlefield. You can volunteer by pressing the headset button on the main menu, once pressed you will be in a queue to be matched with a "student". Once the game has found you a "student" it will ask if you would like to coach them, upon pressing "Yes" you will join the server the "student" is in and will commence Coaching.
