What is Academic Coaching?

Academic coaching is a type of coaching that focuses on helping students improve their academic performance. It is designed to help students develop the skills, strategies, and habits needed to succeed in school. Academic coaches work with students to identify areas of weakness, set goals, and develop a plan of action to achieve those goals. They may also help students develop study skills, time management techniques, and test-taking strategies.

Academic coaches also provide support in specific subject areas such as math, reading, writing or science. They may also work with students who have learning disabilities or other challenges that affect their academic performance.

Academic coaching can also help students with organization, planning, and goal setting. They may also help students develop the skills they need to manage stress, stay motivated, and maintain focus. Many academic coaches work with students at all levels, from elementary school to college and beyond.

Overall, academic coaching is a flexible and customized approach to support students in their academic journey, by identifying and addressing their needs, setting and achieving goals, and providing guidance, feedback and accountability.
