How does it work?
A study skills tutor meets with the student in-person or via video conference or both in order to provide academic coaching and study skills training. Families often ask us to work with their student in the following areas: organization skills, time management, and note-taking. However, it is our practice to customize our tutoring services to meet the needs of each student.
What are the benefits?
-
Outside perspective and guidance to resolve academic performance issues or problems
-
Reduced stress between parent and student. Students have an accountability partner to assist with managing school assignments, exams, and papers
-
Experienced student advisor to support and empower students

Graduating High School Seniors transitioning to college and College Students
We provide coaching and counseling services for students during the summer before their first year of college, as well as coaching support throughout a student's freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior years of college.
Students- here's how we can help you:
-
Pre-college coaching on strategies, processes, and academic tools to help you succeed inside and outside the classroom. Why pre-college coaching? College is on a totally different level from high school. There is more work. The expectations from teachers, or in this case, professors are higher. And the task of balancing academics, extracurricular activities, and your social life is amplified. And even if you graduated from your public or private high school with stellar grades and ranked at the top of your class, you’ll find that college, irrespective of the type of college, is structurally different from high school and therefore presents new learning challenges.
-
Weekly 30 minute to one-hour academic and college life coaching sessions during the semester (approximately 16 weeks). Herein is where we have a coaching session with you each week to offer guidance and support on your path through college. During the weekly calls (or video conferences), we review and track your academic progress; strategize with you on how to earn higher grades on quizzes, tests, and papers; and, coach you on ways to stay ahead of upcoming events, be-it academic assignments, athletic commitments, or social obligations.
-
Phone and e-mail on-call availability for time-sensitive academic, social, and cross-cultural coaching needs. We are available to you on an on-call basis in order to help you avoid pitfalls or road blocks in college, as well as to offer you strategies on how to succeed in college.

-
You have a proactive way of protecting your investment – often a $200,000 to $280,000 four-year college education financial investment – by optimizing your college experience
-
You will have an objective, non-judgmental resource to assist you with navigating the college environment and the rigor of college coursework
