With all that education has gone through recently, you may be wondering, “how can high school and college students in Long Beach, CA survive this year”?
Academic Coaching Specialists are here to answer that call and provide support for teenage students and their families. We provide one-on-one academic and executive function support for high school and college students that helps them get through a tough subject or a rough year.
We work with all students, but have seen particular success with students with ADD, ADHD, Anxiety and other attention or executive function challenges. Why? Because our program focuses on time management, organization, and accountability. We work to transform their habits so that they can begin to see the benefits of proactive thinking and planning. Your family will have less stress knowing that your teenager has someone working with them every week on these skills, and that they are being held accountable for following through on their plans (by someone other than you)!

HIGH SCHOOL
TUTORING
If your high school student is stressed with their demanding course load or needs help getting back on top of a challenging subject, give us a call.
If it seems like your teen is always missing deadlines, asking for extensions, or forgetting about assignments altogether, an academic coach is exactly the person you want to help them overcome this problem. We provide them with an easy to follow 4 step system that, if used consistently, will help them master their time. It teaches them long-term, short-term and intermediate planning. It shows them how to work incrementally and proactively. Coaches will work with them each week to ensure proper usage of this amazing tool and will give them tips and tricks on how they can work even more efficiently as they move through the semester.
Bad Grades in a Subject? Trouble with Writing?
Our top-notch tutors are able to lower their frustration and begin to open their mind to new ways of thinking about a subject. Many times, students will stereotype themselves as “not being good at math” or think of themselves as “a poor writer”. This thinking, of course, is based on their past experiences with the subjects. Tutors can build their confidence and change their perspective. Once they start to see improvement in comprehension and grades, they are much more likely to view the subject, and their ability, in a more positive light. We provide tutors in many subjects for high school and college. Contact us today to see if we can match one of our professional tutors with your student and get them on a new path!

” The program has geared me up for success not only in the classroom but also in life. Having a dedicated plan day in and day out has helped me achieve so much. With the help and guidance from ACS, I was able to graduate college (which I never thought could happen) and have helped me land my dream job right out of college! Thank you ACS!! “
