You don't need to fall behind! LAS Academic Coaches are ready to help you learn, achieve, and succeed in measurable ways.

Executive Functioning & Educational Support

College and graduate students are asked to absorb and apply complex information, often under tight deadlines and increasing pressure. LAS Coaches understand that students are balancing their academics alongside many other demands for their time. That’s why LAS focuses on building the skills that matter most for success, including organization, time management, decision‑making, and self‑regulation. However, executive functioning skills don’t develop the same way or on the same timeline for everyone, and that’s okay. LAS Coaches meet students where they are, providing practical strategies and personalized support to help them move forward with confidence.

One-on-one LAS Coaching

Research shows that personalized, one‑on‑one coaching can significantly improve learning and academic performance, especially when offered at the point of need.

Whether a student is navigating complex coursework, drafting a thesis, or preparing for a high‑stakes exam, LAS Academic Coaches provide tailored, one‑on‑one support designed to meet each student’s unique goals. With deep subject knowledge and advanced educational training, LAS Coaches partner with college and graduate students to build skills, strengthen confidence, and support success at the highest academic levels.

Individual Education Plan

Every LAS partnership begins with an initial consultation process designed to understand each student’s unique academic goals, strengths, and challenges. From this process, LAS Coaches develop a personalized Individual Education Plan that serves as a clear, practical roadmap for success.

Each plan is intentionally tailored to the student and includes defined learning objectives, structured daily and weekly workflows, and strategies that promote self‑reflection and accountability. Students work with their LAS Coach to build effective study habits, manage time and priorities, and develop sustainable approaches to academic work. Progress‑tracking tools and measurable benchmarks ensure that growth is visible and meaningful over time.

LAS Individual Education Plans empower college and graduate students to take ownership of their learning, make steady progress, and achieve their academic goals with clarity and confidence, transforming effort into measurable success.

Case Management

Case management is a defining feature of LAS Academic Coaching and an important way that LAS distinguishes itself from traditional tutoring services. Rather than working in isolation, LAS Coaches take a holistic, coordinated approach to supporting each student’s academic success.

With written consent, LAS Coaches provide comprehensive case management to promote clear communication and collaboration among faculty members, academic advisors, learning specialists, allied health professionals, and other identified supports. This coordinated approach ensures that everyone involved is aligned around shared goals, expectations, and strategies.

Through ongoing communication and coordination, LAS Coaches advocate for student needs within complex academic environments, help reduce confusion, and streamline support. Case management allows students to focus on learning and progress, knowing that their support team is working together intentionally and effectively.

Study Skills Counseling and Educational Therapy

As students transition from high school to post‑secondary education, the academic demands increase, and study strategies must evolve as well. LAS Academic Coaches and LAS Educational Therapists help students strengthen and refine their study skills, develop more effective habits of mind, and build sustainable approaches for life-long learning that support academic success.

Through individualized support, students learn how to organize information, manage time and workload, approach complex tasks strategically, and monitor their own learning more effectively. This work not only enhances academic performance but also fosters greater confidence and independence.

Educational therapy is a specialized, one‑on‑one intervention designed to support individuals with a wide range of learning challenges, including diagnosed learning disorders, neurological differences, and sub‑clinical learning difficulties. Educational therapy services are developmentally responsive, helping each student access their strengths and reach their full potential.

IEP & Section 504 Planning

LAS Academic Coaches support students with Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) and Section 504 Plans, and expertly do so by extending these supports during the transition from high school to post‑secondary education. Navigating this shift can be complex, and LAS Coaches help students understand how accommodations change and how to advocate effectively in college and graduate settings.

By consulting closely with students and families, LAS Coaches work to “level the playing field,” ensuring that appropriate supports are in place and aligned with each student’s academic goals. Our approach promotes access, equity, and self‑advocacy so that all students are positioned to learn, achieve, and succeed.

Don’t fall behind. LAS Academic Coaches are trained and ready to partner with you to co construct your Individual Education Plan and help you put it into action. Through personalized support, accountability, and ongoing progress tracking, our coaches guide students toward measurable outcomes and meaningful academic success.

    Initial Consultation Process

    All LAS services begin with an initial consultation designed to develop a thorough understanding of each student’s learning profile. During this meeting, the LAS Coach works to clarify academic and personal learning goals, identify presenting concerns, and explore prior academic and test‑taking experiences, along with other relevant factors. Using a systems‑based approach, the LAS Coach listens carefully to the student’s narrative to design an Individual Education Plan with clearly defined learning objectives and measurable outcomes.

    Designing an Individual Education Plan

    LAS believes in co-constructing an Individual Educational Plan in partnership with each student to build awareness, ownership, and motivation. Through collaboration, students are actively engaged in identifying goals, understanding challenges, and shaping strategies that support meaningful progress.

    Following the Initial Consultation, LAS students receive a comprehensive consultation report that includes a proposed Individual Education Plan, clear written guidance for daily and weekly workflows, and an LAS Planner/Tracker. These tools help students monitor progress, reflect on outcomes, and stay accountable as they work toward their academic goals.

    LAS Academic Coaching

    LAS students receive a secure copy of their proposed Individual Education Plan. Once the plan is reviewed and approved, students are thoughtfully matched with an LAS Coach. Coaches are assigned based on subject-matter expertise, goodness of fit, and availability to ensure a strong and effective partnership.

    LAS Academic Coaches bring advanced training and experience to provide structure, academic support, advocacy, progress tracking, and accountability. Through individualized coaching, students develop practical strategies to strengthen organization, sustain attention, and build other essential executive functioning skills, supporting both academic performance and long‑term independence.

Success Stories

LAS Academic Coaches go beyond traditional tutoring. They are specially trained to provide both executive functioning support and content‑based instruction to promote structured, effective homework completion and independent learning.

While there may be some overlap between tutoring and LAS Academic Coaching, the key distinction lies in the approach. LAS Coaches not only bring deep content knowledge to help students address and strengthen underlying skill or knowledge gaps, but they also focus on how students learn. By teaching strategies that support planning, organization, attention, and task execution, LAS Academic Coaches equip students with the learning processes they need for lasting academic and professional success.
