Academic Coaching Specialists are ready to fire up the Dragons this semester! We have the top tutors and academic coaches for Tiffin University students.
Looking for a tutor?
Tutors at ACS are waiting to help Tiffin University students this semester. A tutor from Academic Coaching Specialists can help a student to get through a tough subject, challenging chapter or unclear material.
However, it is often the case that there are other areas the student could use extra support in such as study strategies, note taking methods, and test taking technique. These can apply to a wider area of academic life. Tutoring can be a stand-alone arrangement for one subject, used for several subjects, or in combination with academic coaching.
Need an academic coach?
Academic coaching is also available to Tiffin University students, regardless of the subject. Unlike tutoring, academic coaching goes beyond just one subject area. Coaches will teach students how to become the masters of their time, manage their stress, get better grades, and build their confidence. We will Introduce new learning tools and strategies that create effective habits, leading to increased success both in and out of the classroom.
As with tutoring, the coach will meet with the student on a weekly basis. However, with coaching, the student will be required to do some outside reading or assignment between each session as assigned by the coach. The student and coach will meet at a mutually agreed upon time to review each week’s materials. The two then work together, building a relationship that provides mentorship and guidance for the student.
Working one-on-one with a coach will provide the necessary assistance and support for students to:
- learn time good management and study skills
- find a healthy balance between social and academic life on campus
- understand how to study and take effective notes for each class type
- learn the steps and strategies to properly prepare for exams
- break down large papers or assignments into manageable action items to be completed incrementally
- overcome stagnation by focusing on goals and success
- quickly bounce back from setbacks
Academic Coaching Specialists provide stability in this ever-changing environment
- Coaches will walk through the semester with the student, adapting and overcoming any challenges that arise
- Having a coach check in each week is a good way to stay accountable
- Techniques taught in the program allow the student to stress less and become more efficient with their time and effort
- The coach will be there when things get tough. They provide encouragement, advice and motivation.
NEARLY 1/3 OF COLLEGE FRESHMEN DROP OUT BEFORE THEIR SOPHOMORE YEAR
Whether it is an athlete training for the next competition, a musician or dancer practicing for the next performance, or a business leader on the verge of the next big acquisition, working with a coach is the best way to stay focused. They provide guidance and encouragement, accountability and motivation to be your very best along the way. ACS coaches will help you achieve your academic goals, keeping you focused, inspired, and supported throughout the journey.
College Freshmen
Freshmen starting or continuing their first year are our most served customers. We find that the best approach to academic coaching is a proactive one. Starting from the top, we work with students on what they already know from high school and build on those skills to create an even better college experience. Tiffin University students who start their freshman year with academic coaching find they are much more prepared and ahead of their peers. They are also less stressed and find they have more free time to enjoy non-academic activities.
Academic Probation
Students who find themselves on academic probation at Tiffin can take part in our Academic 911 program. This academic coaching program is designed to address the immediate issues in order to get the student back in good standing. Further, it teaches how to avoid potential issues in the future and strives to break any bad habits of the past. Coaches will identify any individual problems, and make any necessary referrals as appropriate.
Online or Remote Learning
Taking an online or remote course? Academic Coaching Specialists can help students remain focused and engaged in these types of courses. Tutoring is not always the best solution for these types of classes, as the material is not typically the problem. Rather, the ability to see things laid out and in order, along with some incremental motivation is usually all that is needed to see a drastic improvement. Our coaches will stay involved each week, making sure you are not overwhelmed or procrastinating on getting things completed.
Top athletes have trainers and coaches to help them reach their potential. Putting an academic coach in your corner today can ensure you will have the support needed to get through even the toughest semester.
- Our coaches are experienced educators, not peers
- We earn trust by demonstrating our methods work in real life
- Coaches don’t just respond to a student’s needs, they anticipate them
