What is an Academic Coach ?
An Academic Coach is an educational specialist who assists students with Attention Deficit Disorder, poor Executive Skills, and specific Learning Disabilities such as Dyslexia, Written Expression Disorders, and Mathematics Disorders learn strategies to improve homework organization, time management, project planning and task completion.
Academic Coaches and the student work together to:
· Identify and Target specific “hot spots”of organizational difficulty
· Develop a strategy and “Plan of Action”
· Act upon the plan
· Evaluate the success of the “Plan”
· Redesign the “Plan”
· If the “Plan” was successful, tackle another “Organizational Hot Spot”
Educators at Child & Family Development work as Academic Coaches for students with Attention Deficit Disorders, Dyslexia, Written Expression Disorders and Mathematics Disorders who struggle to carry out their daily school routines.
