Peak Learning teacher working with a high school student on organization and planning

Academic Coaching

Academic coaching helps students build the study skills, organization and planner habits that success in school depends on, along with clear communication with their teachers and the confidence to advocate for themselves. We pair that with content support in each subject, at the same time students are learning it in their classes. When a bright kid is turning in work late, losing track of assignments, cramming the night before, or getting Cs in classes they understand, the problem isn’t the content. It’s executive function: the planning, organizing and self-monitoring skills that school assumes but rarely teaches. That’s what we teach.

Who This Is For

  • Students whose grades don’t match their ability
  • Students with ADHD, dyslexia or other learning differences who need skills taught explicitly and practiced over time
  • Gifted and twice-exceptional students who’ve never had to study and are hitting the wall
  • Students transitioning to middle school, high school or a more demanding course load
  • Any student a parent describes as “disorganized” or “unmotivated” (it’s usually the first one)

What a session looks like

  • Sessions run 90 minutes (60 for younger students), usually twice a week.
  • Each session starts with a planner and organization check.
  • Next, we plan for upcoming assignments and assessments.
  • Then we work on the material itself, with the Peak teacher modeling effective skills.
  • We use your student’s real school assignments and only add work when school hasn’t given enough.
  • After every meeting, parents receive an email from the Peak teacher covering the student’s current grades, upcoming assignments and deadlines, the study plan, and what we expect the student to complete before the next session.

How Peak Does Academic Coaching

Academic Coaching

Peak Academic Coaches are experienced classroom teachers who know what your student’s teachers expect, how grading actually works, and how to communicate professionally with your student’s teachers and school staff. Each student gets an individualized learning plan built from their actual classes, assignments and habits, adjusted as the semester moves. We help your student organize their planner, manage their time around this week’s assignments, prepare for upcoming tests, identify each task, break it into manageable parts, set an agenda with time for each, and reflect on how they’ll approach that kind of task next time, practicing on their real schoolwork until these skills become their own. Detailed notes go home after every session and are reviewed by a Peak director, and we’ll communicate with teachers and counselors when it helps.
