ACADEMIC COACHING
Basic Plan: $250 per semester
Intermediate Plan: $450 per semester
Intensive Plan: $800 per semester
Academic Coaching is a comprehensive service for college students (and some high school upperclassmen) that assists with time management, organization, planning, and project management. Many students have trouble adjusting to the increased workload and self-guided nature of college classes, and need a little extra help to learn to organize their work and stay on pace while keeping their GPA high during the critical first years of college (or final years of high school).
All Academic Coaching plans provide a fully organized semester calendar of project due dates, exam schedules, homework assignments, and readings, along with a full set of adjustable weekly "to do" lists and personal guidance on how to schedule time for all coursework. Each plan also provides a number of consulting hours per semester, to be used at the student's discretion. Consulting hours can be used for editing and proofreading written assignments, brainstorming and outlining essays, homework checks, help with reading assignments, creating exam study guides, and even assistance with locating and scheduling specific student services (like subject tutoring, academic advising, student health services, etc).
The most basic plan includes 2 hours of consulting time, the intermediate plan includes 6 consulting hours, and the intensive plan includes 15 hours of academic consulting to be used at any point throughout the semester.
