Who Needs An Academic Coach?
Humans are all specific learners to some degree. We all vary in the styles of how we absorb and distribute information. School, in any grade, largely teaches to the most mainstream segment of the population. Many students are left feeling like they are missing something. They can’t quite put their finger on it, but the whole thing feels like a “square peg” situation. Does that sound familiar? If the answer is YES, then an Academic Coach could be helpful!
What is an Academic Coach?
In many ways, it’s a blessing to be able to investigate just what makes you YOU. Light bulbs turn on, become brighter, and suddenly, your “square peg” situation and evolution have resulted in a sense of comfort, resourcefulness, and most importantly, pride.
To reach that new understanding, you likely will need help. Someone who is a tour guide, camp counselor, cheerleader, teacher, fun relative you can vent to, social worker, and cruise director all rolled into one is basically how to describe an Academic Coach. An Academic Coach teaches students how to run the plays of the academic world, but in a highly specialized way for your individual child or young adult. Together, we can navigate academic transitions, course correct when necessary, explore interests, and much more.
