Autism Academic Coaching
Welcome to Spectrum Success: First Year Academic College Coaching, dedicated to helping first-year college students on the autism spectrum build academic and executive functioning skills. These skills increase higher academic achievement and retention rates.
As an autistic adult with a PhD, I understand the unique challenges you face in college. I will support you with practical tools and strategies created from my own experiences and proven techniques.
My 8-week personalized coaching program offers one-on-one support to develop effective academic skills essential for students. This includes academic planning and prioritization, time management strategies, organization of study materials, boosting focus and working memory, academic self-advocacy, and task initiation and completion.
I have positioned my program as an investment in student success, confidence, and college retention. I look forward to working with students and families seeking authentic expert-led support.

The use of examples helped me learn to apply the equations usefully. The lecture allowed me to better understand things I didn’t grasp while reading the text.
