Abstract

This paper explores the important roles of school counselors in Nigerian secondary schools as career developers and learning motivators. School counselors are critical stakeholders in the educational system, providing guidance and support to students as they navigate the complexities of academic and career choices. As career developers, counselors help students identify their interests and strengths, explore various career options, and make informed decisions about their future paths. In addition, they work with students to develop the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in their chosen careers. As learning motivators, counselors create a positive and supportive environment that promotes academic success and fosters students' personal growth. They assist students in setting academic goals, developing study skills, and managing stress and other challenges that may arise during their academic journey. By providing this guidance and support, school counselors play a critical role in helping Nigerian students achieve their full potential and prepare for successful futures.
