It's a difficult time to be a young adult.
Our kids need patience, coaching and another adult who cares.
When the parents of today’s students were in school, their parents usually took one newspaper. Now information is everywhere and some sources conflict with others. Today’s young people are more likely to feel anxious over political antagonisms, climate change, and social media’s pressures. A caring tutor can help students focus on academic successes that build confidence and lower anxiety during this challenging time.

Social media. A pandemic. A divided society.
Our kids need patience, coaching and another adult who cares.
Today’s students are experiencing challenges that are unlike any their parents faced in school. With the internet, social pressures are now 24/7. Conflict across the nation leaves young people anxious about problems they can’t fix. And many students who lost ground in the pandemic are quietly struggling to get back on track.

Overwhelmed, stuck and swamped.
Our kids need patience, coaching and another adult who cares.
With the variety of attractive school activities, many students take on more than they can handle, especially if they lack time management and organization skills. Then add in hours devoted to social media! Students often find themselves behind, feeling guilty or disappointed in themselves, and reluctant to ask parents for assistance. A tutor can help sort things out, prioritize activities and orchestrate successes that build much-needed self-confidence.
