Students will likely be motivated to continue to research and to apply to colleges.Class Experience
The college search and application process for grade 12 is time consuming and can be stressful. Let me take the stress out of the situation and help build confidence in the student and their ability to apply to the best fit college for them. This class will assist a student with the college application process, from proofreading the application to polishing the activities section, to understanding application time lines and student expectations. I have nearly 4 decades of experience in education, study skills, time management, and academic coaching. I was most recently the Director of University Guidance and designed and delivered a college prep program for grades 9-12 for an international IB school. I'm looking forward to helping individual students feel in charge and confident about their next educational step. My students love this style of college workshop as they feel in control and excited about the future!
