Student Accessibility Services (SAS) offers free academic coaching to students registered with our office. Academic coaching is a tool that helps students identify barriers to academic success.
You can work with an academic coach on building skills and using college resources to overcome obstacles. In each session you can work on difficulties you are currently experiencing, including time management, study skills, communication, test taking, technology and self care. You can meet once a week with an academic coach either in person or online.
To request academic coaching, email disabilities@aims.edu or let your advisor know of your interest at the time of your intake appointment.
