- understand the 'contract' and four year plan of completing one's major 
- communicate professionally/appropriately with professors/advisors

- understand the basics of student loans
- take on the responsibilities of being a successful student on their own (including note-taking/study skills/basic financial knowledge)

- Create a five-year and ten-year plan

I'm an Independent College Consultant. Mentoring students as they transition from high school into college is my passion, and I have done this for 9 years through two different mentoring programs, where I have built solid relationships with first generation/freshman college students. I also worked as a study abroad advisor (which means I've advised students of all majors and years in school with a special focus on academic planning with freshman) for more than 5 years, as well as guided high school and college foreign exchange students as they adapt to the high school and college systems in the USA. In addition, I have experience teaching general education English courses at a university.  These experiences have made me extremely detail-oriented in my advising and teaching, helping me break down new and complex topics into small steps for new students. 

숙제 제공
Meaningful homework in the form of online research or preparation for the next class is required for each class to allow for a more in-depth class discussion. Assignments will always be directly relevant to each future class.

Prior to the first class, students will be given a college syllabus to read. This will be posted in the classroom prior to the first day of class. (Future assignments will be given in class, and assignments should never take longer than 30 minutes to complete, with most taking less than 15 minutes.)
