Academic Coach
The Academic Coach Educates and Mentors
Every child in the Progressive Learning At Home program is assigned an Academic Coach -- a teacher and mentor specifically matched to your student for the duration of the program. The Academic Coach provides professional supervision and encouragement, helping to build the child's confidence and increase their interest in the learning process.
The Academic Coach and student communicate exclusively via email. At predetermined days and times your student will compose an email outlining any questions they had about the material. Before the next session, the Academic Coach will respond with encouragement and support in areas where the student is struggling.
The Academic Coach is a dedicated resource for your child, answering questions that arise and providing guidance and support. After every session, they will review your child's material and adjust the lesson plan to focus on specific areas needing the most improvement. Through this ongoing positive interaction with the coach, your child will develop valuable technical and communication skills while the Academic Coach will get to know your child's personality, academic strengths and areas for improvement.
We match students with skilled educators from around the country. All of our academic coaches are experienced teachers with a wealth of knowledge and expertise. We are very selective in our hiring process, choosing only educators who are credentialed and highly qualified. Each one holds a University degree, has extensive teaching experience and has passed multiple reference verifications and background checks.
