Kate Mefford Academic Coach Services - Kate Mefford Academic Coach

Services

Kate helps students entering Middle School, nearing College Graduation, and everything in between.

Whether it is through INDIVIDUAL COACHING SESSIONS or SMALL GROUP BOOT CAMPS, your student’s needs can be met. Kate is nimble and willing to customize a plan to ensure success.


Individual Academic Coaching Sessions

These are private one-on-one sessions that are best done 1 to 2 times per week.
Individual coaching sessions typically last 1 to 1.5 hours, depending on how much work needs to be accomplished.


Next Level Bootcamp

Moving into the next educational phase?
This is a great option for students navigating through transitional periods, like entering middle or high school or heading off to college for the first time.
For 3 consecutive days, Kate will meet with a small group for 2 hours to prepare for what is on the academic horizon.


Build Bootcamp

Feeling like a foundation needs to be repaired or that a complete rebuild is in order? Build Bootcamp will also meet for 3 consecutive days for 2 hours, but will focus on helping your student recognize a need to change and teach them how to GROW


The Combine

In a time crunch?
Choose either the Next Level or Build Bootcamp and get it done in a day! Kate will meet with your student(s) for 3 hours in the morning, break for lunch, and finish with 3 hours in the afternoon. This is ideal for students in 9th grade and beyond.
