Academic Comeback Initiative offers a service far more profound than tutoring; it's comprable a coach coaching his player to overcome a challenging curriculum. At ACI, we aim to spark tenacity in students who want to make strides academically but need a foundation. No matter the situation, in order to lead a comeback, the process starts with a coach and a team that wants to win. This is why we call our process Academic Coaching. We offer the one on one work between "academic coaches" and students. We also give valuable advice needed to direct students towards carrying out their goals. The best part is we work around our student's schedule to ensure our service remains accessible to all students in Fairfield County, Connecticut.
Each student has unique strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles, therefore we accommodate to their needs accordingly. We offer academic coaching from K through 12th grade to prepare for subjects:
Math
English
History
Language (Spanish)
Science
The Academic Coaching process can be held in-person or virtually, whichever allows volunteers to give students the necessary individualized attention. We are able to address individual questions and concerns to promote a deeper understanding of concepts. We encourage students to progress at their pace, rather than trying to force comprehension. We understand school can be nerve-racking and self-advocating to teachers can feel daunting or even ineffective. We work to equip students with variety of 'studying' methods and cognition techniques like:
Making and Using flashcards/Quizlet to practice repetition over time
Utilizing extra practice worksheets/problems to apply repetition and gain confidence answering problems
Taking effective notes that promote complete understanding of a topic
Writing essays (creating a thesis and strengthening arguments with correlating research)
Working on time management with activities in timed intervals
Creating realistic tests for students to take in preparation
Teaching self advocacy to buildi positive relationships with teachers to better school learning environment
The definition of the word "study" is to devote time and attention to acquiring knowledge on an academic subject. Our Academic Coaches devote time recognize how students learn so they can best acquire knowledge needed to succeed. By giving students options and letting them choose what works, Academic Coaches are accommodating to how a student best comprehends a topic. This overall, helps better prepare our scholars for their current and educational endeavors.
The Academic Coaching Process goes beyond subject-specific work. It also gives focus to broader academic skills such as organization, time management, and critical thinking. By providing students with these essential skills, they'll become better prepared to excel in their current subjects and in their future academic endeavors as well.
Many students have different perspectives on school, no matter the case, we aim to take students to new heights in their studies. The Academic Comeback Initiative turns students into scholars by individually tailoring their learning so that they can maximize their potential.
