Modernizing the Traditional Tutoring Model
The joys of learning should not conclude with a high school GPA, college transcript, or even a diploma. At Octant Academics, we believe that learning is a lifelong pursuit that brings a rare depth of engagement with the world around us. Accordingly, we provide students with the skills and habits to succeed in any setting and the confidence and motivation to initiate their own intellectual pursuits at any point in their lives.
At Octant Academics, we refer to ourselves as academic coaches.
Although helping students develop competency in specific subjects is an incredibly important aspect of what we do, our ultimate goal is to help students discover the ability and confidence to navigate their own education.
Who We Are
We are a small, close-knit team of subject-matter experts with a common mission: to help students develop the skills and confidence to successfully take charge of their education. Our coaches come from a variety of academic and professional backgrounds, each with their own unique skill sets and expertise. You can always trust that we will take the time to match your student with the coach best suited to their needs.
Our Approach
Every student has a unique set of academic challenges, and this understanding is built into the core of our coaching philosophy. When working with one of our coaches, your student will receive dynamic support that centers on academic skill-building and the development of healthy habits that can be carried forward into any learning environment. We implement this approach in both our academic coaching and subject coaching formats. Areas of skill development include but are not limited to organization, note-taking, test-taking strategies, and self-advocacy in the classroom.
We also understand that monitoring your student’s progress in school can be overwhelming, especially in the fast-moving world we live in today. Our coaches are more than happy to monitor grades, teacher feedback, and upcoming assignments, discuss these topics with your student, and provide you with regular detailed reports.
Newsletter
As educators, we are always exploring and devising new ways to make learning easier and more enjoyable for our students. Initially, we wanted to share our findings and ideas with the families we work with, so we started the Stormport Newsletter. All issues of the newsletter are now available on our newsletter page.
