The Academic Coaching program was started in 1998 in Long Beach California. At that time the program was built on the model of a ‘Personal Trainer.’
|
In the same way the personal trainer assists their client by telling them what to do, motivating the client, and monitoring their client’s progress, The Academic Coach provides 3 M service to their student: Motivate, Monitor, and Mediate. Coaches assist students by Motivating the students to perform, Monitoring the students’ progress and by teaching the student to Mediate relationships that promote success. |
