There are very few people today that would argue against the importance of education. A solid foundation in education opens the doors to new opportunities in today’s tense economy. With that said, every parent wants to give their child the best tools to help them succeed. Luckily for parents, Academic Success is here to help.

Jamie Altshule founded Academic Success in 2004 after a career of teaching traditionally in front of the class, tutoring students one-on-one in the home, and managing and teaching home schools. Enlightened by the perspective of both teachers and students, Jamie trains her academic coaches in core principles of organization, time-management, and study skills.  This holistic approach strives to create a platform for overall studentship. Students often require both extra help in their toughest classes as well as support maintaining a well-organized and planned set of study habits for the home. Through her work Jamie found that hiring the coaches with the right personality and communication skills is key to helping students maintain their drive and inspiration to achieve their best grades.

All of Academic Success’s coaches have two essential qualities: the mastery of their subject and a personality that is relatable, energetic and compassionate. Academic Success aligns the best coaches to fit the student’s needs by taking into consideration the student’s goals, their learning style and personality. Coaches break down material for their students to make it understandable allowing the student be able to master their chosen subject. Over-all organizational and executive function skills are also taught to help students manage their academics in a calm, strategic manner to avoid last minute panic. Academic Success provides students with the know-how that allows them to plan ahead for assignments and organize their homework schedule to maximize their time without feeling overwhelmed.
