Elevate Executive Functioning and Academic Coaching


Our highly effective evidenced-based program has been refined after years of working in international IB schools.  We understand the demands of schools and the individual needs of the students. We create a program tailored to their needs and strengths, to equip students to navigate the challenges in school and later in adult life.

It's worth noting that academic coaching is distinct from tutoring, as we are licensed and highly qualified educators. While tutoring focuses on providing solely subject-specific instruction and help with homework, Elevate Coaching takes a holistic, personalized, and collaborative approach to support students in various aspects of their educational journey. We mentor students to set and achieve academic goals, develop effective study skills, enhance their learning strategies, and help the students overcome any challenges they may be facing.
