Our Massachusetts students come from elementary school, middle school, high school, and college. Some have diagnoses such as ADHD or other learning differences and see coaching as excellent additional support to school-based interventions. Some of our clients have emotional challenges, such as anxiety, which impact their ability to work effectively; others have no formal diagnosis. Nevertheless, they find that they benefit from better work habits to work more efficiently with their busy schedules.

Preparing for Academic Success
