Adult Learners

Academic Coaching

Just like an athlete needs a coach to guide them in skill building, adult learners can benefit from study skills coaching at any time during their college experience.  PASC professional staff will meet individually with students who wish to improve their study skills on a one-on-one basis, both virtually as well as in person.  Academic coaching sessions are typically 45 minutes to an hour long.

In a one-on-one academic coaching session, you can develop an individualized plan for implementing practical, proven strategies resulting in better grades. Coaching assistance focuses on the following topics:  obtaining college success, enhancing test taking skills, improving study habits, learning textbook reading tips, effective note taking in lectures, improving academic time management and motivation, developing course success strategies and referrals to other campus resources if needed.  Discussions can also be focused on the transition into a college setting.

To request a meeting with a PASC Study Skills Coach complete the inquiry form.  You can also call us directly at 252-737-3009.
