Coaching for Teens & Young Adults & Parents

Skills and tools addressed during coaching focus on helping students achieve academic success, as well as helping them gain life skills to lead effective and fulfilled lives. Academic life coaching empowers students to:

MANAGE STRESS WHILE ACHIEVING ACADEMIC SUCCESS

Coaching helps students determine how to use different academic strategies, as well as learning, memory, study skills, and mindfulness techniques. Students learn to improve focus and manage anxiety. Students become less stressed, more motivated, and more confident they can overcome challenges.

UNDERSTAND MOTIVATION AND STAY ENGAGED

Students want to do well, but some find it hard to take necessary actions to move forward.

Throughout the coaching process, students learn about a variety of motivation styles and how to understand what motivates them. Increased self-awareness helps them to be more motivated and engaged.

STRENGTHEN RELATIONSHIPS

Emotional intelligence and personal fluency are life skills that young people need in order to be fulfilled and successful in their adult lives. Building strong relationships is a big part of a positive educational experience and provides the necessary foundation for a successful future. When students increase their emotional intelligence, communication skills, and leadership skills, they are able to take a proactive role in building powerful relationships.

REDUCE ANXIETY ABOUT THE COLLEGE APPLICATION PROCESS

The Academic Life Coaching Program is designed to help high school students identify and explore their interests before they navigate the college application process. A coach is a powerful ally in the process because coaching helps students undertake leadership roles, as well as increases their emotional intelligence and personal fluency, which are characteristics that college admission officers want to see in applicants.

FOCUS ON THE BEST PATH FORWARD

Parents want the best for their children. The problem is knowing exactly what the best path is and how parents can best support their teens so that they can learn the necessary life skills for success. After working with a coach, students will develop a deep understanding of their values, skills and interests, which will help them find clarity about their future.
