Academic Success Coaching
Mission Statement
Academic Success Coaching at MGA empowers students to become confident, lifelong learners who are equipped with the skills, resources, and support systems necessary to succeed and achieve their academic and personal goals.
What is Academic Success Coaching?
Academic Success Coaching is a personalized, learner-centered support service that helps students enhance their academic performance by building on their strengths, promoting engagement, clarifying goals, and maintaining accountability. Through one-on-one sessions with certified Academic Success Coaches, students develop essential skills such as goal setting, time management, study strategies, and motivation. The coaching relationship focuses on aligning current academic efforts with long-term goals while fostering campus connection and personal growth, distinct from the roles of counselors or academic advisors.
Academic Coaching helps students become independent, confident learners by addressing both academic and personal challenges. Success Coaches support students in developing evidence-based strategies, fostering accountability, and cultivating a healthy and manageable approach to learning. Topics may include exam preparation, adjusting to campus life, effective communication with faculty, and adopting productive academic habits.
By identifying strengths, overcoming barriers, and connecting action steps with personal values, students are empowered to engage more fully in their academic journey. Ultimately, Academic Success Coaching aims to promote self-awareness, resilience, and a sense of belonging while supporting students through graduation and beyond.
