This is one of the most common concerns of parents and an area we address with coaching. The Academic Life Coaching program uses the challenge of grades to help students work on Emotional Intelligence and other skills, such as increasing their self-awareness, so that they know exactly how they study best and why they get the grades that they do.
Since schools are primarily focused on academic work, they often don’t have the time or resources to developing teen leadership skills. ALC students learn how to exercise leadership in ways that are meaningful to them, such as starting a business or excelling in their art.
We are not traditional college counselors, nor does the Academic Life Coaching program spend a lot of time on the details of a college application. However, the skill set that students are learning in ALC is useful for many aspects of the college application and can address sources of anxiety. We simply apply the concepts of the ALC program to the college application as if it is a project. For instance, an application essay is can be approached as an exercise in increasing self-awareness and communication.
Over the course of the Academic Life Coaching program, we keep a close eye on each student’s progress. For example, we keep track if a student is using her planner and following her specific study plan. We’ve found that measuring certain elements of behavior and habits naturally lead to other results.
