Chances are, if you are a high school or college student, you are already in a huge rush to get through this blog.

We know that you are already being bombarded with assignments, projects and deadlines- along with all the emotional and social pressures that come along with these demands.

We promise to make this quick!

Partnering with an Academic Life Coach can help you:

Explore Your Strengths and Interests: Academic Life Coaches can help identify and tap into your strengths and learning styles, and use this information to help you go to where YOU want to go.

Pinpoint Goals: Once you’ve formed a deeper understanding of your core values and how you are “showing up” in the world, you will be given tools and taught techniques that will help you achieve the goals that you set out to achieve for yourself. These goals can be Academic, Social or Emotional.

Identify Needs: This is a 1:1 student-led experience that is completely focused on YOU and the needs that YOU feel you want to address. You can do so freely, as the Academic Coach-Student relationship is 100% confidential and without judgment. You can also feel safe knowing that your Coach is trained on how to help you find the right answers and refer you to other wellness professionals, if needed.

Create Strategies: Once your goals and needs have been clarified, your Coach will help you harness that learning and unleash it into meaningful action steps!

Check for Progress: Your Coach is not just your thinking partner, but also your accountability partner. You will decide how you’d like to be held accountable for the incredible changes that you set out to make!
