individual coaching
Online academic coaching that provides personalized academic support from a knowledgeable and caring academic coach (who is also a former teacher!) for students in both traditional and non-traditional school settings.
We use a holistic approach and incorporate social-emotional learning to build executive functioning skills with students in grades 6-12 and with college students.
​
Who is this for?
-
Students who want extra support & guidance from an academic coach who understands both what they're learning and how to best learn it
​
-
Students who smart, capable, and are getting feedback from teachers that they "have so much potential"... but aren't doing well in the class
​
-
Students who do best 1-on-1
-
Students who struggle with skills like writing, studying, organizing
​
-
Students do well in school overall, but wish it felt more peaceful or easy; it feels like an emergency each time they need to study for a test or complete a project
​
-
Students who want to learn how to study and organize their time but have never learned how or have never implemented what they’ve learned
​
-
Students who want to do well but are struggling to motivate themselves
​
-
We are based out of Atlanta & Savannah, GA but work with students across the country - in Washington, New Mexico, New Jersey, and more!
What does this support look like?
Weekly coaching session(s)
via zoom
Goal Setting: The coach and student set a long-term goal supported by habit-building and check in about progress weekly
​
Plan The Week: Next, we talk about what’s coming up that week for students: tests, assignments, projects, deadlines. We look at long-term & short-term tasks and talk about what needs to happen that week to get there.
​
Work Time: We help the student with the tasks they most need support on for that week.
​
Next Steps: We provide accountability about follow-through.
​
We meet for the equivalent of 34 weeks per school year; 55 minutes each or 2 half sessions of 25 minutes each.
​
Concerned about Zoom? Many families who struggled through online school in the pandemic have concerns about our online format. However, those worries quickly dissipate after the first engaging student consultation! Our meetings are SO different from online school. Our students love meeting with us this way and find that the online format works well in their busy schedules. If you're not sure, no worries - that's why our student consultation is free to you so that your child can try it out before a longer-term commitment.
Weekly
follow-up Emails
The coach sends a follow-up email to parents and students summarizing the session, upcoming assignments, and the steps the student is committing to taking that week to meet all of their deadlines
Texting
support
Students will be able to reach out to their coach via text or app for support and questions between sessions
IS THIS RIGHT FOR MY CHILD?
-
Does your child want to get help, too?
​
-
Do you know your child need help but they need to hear it from someone who is not their parent?
​
-
Are you looking to build your child's overall academic confidence rather than just focus on one or two subjects?
​
-
Do you value learning and growth over grades and SAT scores?
​
​
If you said yes...
you're exactly who we love to help!
