ACADEMIC COACHING EXPERIENCE
Typical challenges experienced by students I’ve coached include:
- exam/test anxiety, panic attacks/forgetting what they studied in tests or exams
- time management problem/ineffective study method
- poor academic self-esteem/confidence
- study procrastination (‘flight’ stress response)
- skipping school/university when there is a test/exam due to stress and fear of failure
- learning difficulties and/or concentration/motivation problem
I’m a UK-qualified teacher experienced in coaching school students who want help with their:
- back to school stress and anxiety (psychosomatic pains like stomach pain at the thought of going back)
- written mock exams and final examinations (GCSEs, IGCSEs, A levels, IB Diploma, European Baccalaureate, Greek Panellinies exams)
- oral exams and assessed presentations
- university/college application interviews (both online and in-person)
- school plays, oral exams, assessed presentations, and other non-academic areas of school life that can bring up performance anxiety
- High School curriculum tests and exams
- Middle school curriculum tests and exams (Greek, international, American, British, and European school system)
- Upper primary (last 2 years of primary school) tests and exams (e.g. end of Year 6 Cambridge exams in British international school system)
I’ve also coached adults to help them achieve their goal(s) related to their:
- university/college exams and resits
- dissertation and big assignment deadlines
- assessed school placement lesson observations (teacher training certification)
- university oral exam prep
- exams for professional development/advancement
HOW I COACH STUDENTS
For some learners, one or more unhealthy habit is behind their motivation/stress issue with schoolwork. We then work together to help them replace their old stress-based habits (e.g. avoiding sitting down to study/procrastination, stress eating before studying, numbing out on social media 2+ hours a day, etc) that they want to replace with better study/organization habits and healthier morning/sleep routines.
Others have already established good study and healthy sleep/self-care habits. So we agree to go straight into focusing on helping them reduce their test/performance/exam-related stress, panic, fear of getting a panic attack in a particular test/exam, fear of failure, problem/motivation concentrating, or any negative emotion that comes up when they think about opening a textbook they have to study, for example.
That being said, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to academic coaching. I tailor my sessions and work to the specific challenges that student is facing and work with them through a teamwork approach to identify what may be blocking them from improving their performance in one or more areas so that we can problem-solve accordingly.
