Strategies For Academic Success
Strategies for Academic Success isn't the same old "college admissions counselors" you'll find toting "best fit" college planning on Yelp. Instead, we're entirely concerned with building a future for your child that extends well beyond their college career. We know that college is just a stepping stone to your child's bright future, so we offer coaching programs that address the entire spectrum of their needs.

Yes, we do admissions counseling, but that's a drop in the bucket compared to what we can offer your family. Tell a story that's going to 'wow' the admissions board, not the same ones they see 10,000 times per year. College should be a way to climb the ladder, not a financial burden that keeps your family down. Start with the end in mind. Your child should focus on careers that fit their values and their interests before they start looking at schools.
Services
Strategies for Academic Success was founded by Weston Mathews in 2010 as an in-home tutoring company geared toward empowering students by providing advanced study skills training and critical thinking workshops rather than rote memorization techniques.
As our students grew into successful high school scholars, it became clear that our clients required effective college planning to ensure their continued success.
Now, Strategies for Academic success offers an ever-expanding list of services for families that extends beyond tutoring into college and career planning.
When it comes time to research possible career paths, students are often asked "What do you want to be when you grow up" but have they ever been asked "who" they want to be when they grow up?
Answering a question like that requires a deep understanding of a student's values and goals, which are difficult to explore and solidify when they're busy staying on top of their studies, extracurricular activities, and chores.
The most successful adults planed their education and career choices well in advance.
Junior year is cited by the National Association of College Admissions Counselors as the most important academic year in regards to college admissions decisions.
Considering that students apply during their senior year of high school, junior year is the final snapshot that university admissions officers will receive before making their primary decisions.
In anticipation of this, we encourage students to finish their college planning during the spring of their junior year rather than trying to get everything done during application season.
We understand that sometimes students and parents are a little late in preparing for college admissions.
After all, there are a thousand other thing to focus on every single day.
Grades are always an issue, students need to study for (and retake) their standardized tests, mid-terms and finals seem to creep up out of nowhere, and let's not forget organized sports, practice, and other extracurricular activities.
The answer is that they (and you, the parent) want to get into a good school so that they can find their passion and become responsible, educated, and wise adults with a happy and opportunity-filled future!
Hook the audience by beginning the story at a tense moment of emotional or physical jeopardy.
Flashback to how they got here in the first place, and sprinkle in some emotional development along the way.
If you want your child to tell their real story then they need a unique take on the same events that hundreds (if not thousands) of students are writing about this application season.
