Academic Coaching
Today's students are often overscheduled and overwhelmed. The demands of rigorous courses, after school sports and other extra curricular activities make "keeping-up" difficult for many. Students find themselves procrastinating, cramming, staying up late completing projects, papers and reports.
Academic Coaching helps students plan and utilize their time effectively and efficiently. Students learn how to learn as they become independent and self-regulated.
Initially, students meet with their academic coach for 6 one hour sessions. Follow-up consultations are highly recommended to be sure students maintain skills.
Call now to schedule your initial 6 hours of Instruction!
Students interested in getting a jump start for 2010-2011 may register for summer.

Reading Comprehension for students in grades 9-12
Even the most advanced students often feel overwhelmed by the amount of reading they are expected to do—and many stay that way throughout high school and into their college career. That's unfortunate because there are methods to improve reading skills that make it easier and faster to handle the load.
