Is your son or daughter is starting to fall behind on assignments in high school? Is your college student telling you everything is fine when clearly they are struggling? Don’t wait! Get them the help they need right now. We are Academic Coaching Specialists and we offer Proactive Academic Support in College Station, TX.
If you are at the bottom of a hill looking up, that is a very different feeling than if you are just a few steps from the top. The view from the bottom means a lot of work and you can start to question your ability to get to the top, or if it is even worth it. That is why we feel so strongly that helping students at the first sign of struggle is critical to their success.
When we work with students it involves changing habits, which we understand, can be very difficult. People don’t generally like change, especially if they are comfortable, or have been doing things a certain way for a period of time. For instance, it is easier to quit smoking after only having smoked for a few weeks than if you have smoked for years. In a similar way, if students start falling into bad habits with school, it is much easier to correct issues at the onset than to try to get them to drastically overhaul how they have gotten used to doing work.
Working with a coach can help minimize the effort needed to get and stay on track, giving them a much higher chance of seeing success much sooner. Even if they are relatively sure they are doing ok, having a coach confirm or correct is an extremely valuable gift. Plus, there is always room to grow and improve as they prepare for future challenges. Act Now!

” 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!! “
