SOS4Students Information

We believe that every student is capable of succeeding in school. SOS4Students (SOS) has found that many students' academic problems are simply a lack of skills or techniques to use when approaching schoolwork. Once a student is equipped with effective organization and study strategies, classes and assignments that were overwhelming become manageable. Students become more motivated, relaxed and self-confident and can enjoy the rewards of academic success. SOS students often struggle with challenges known as "executive dysfunction." These students may miss deadlines, fail to start tasks and struggle with organization. Planning, prioritizing, goal setting, follow through, and test preparation are just some of the areas in which students can find the support they need with our coaching. SOS students may also have atypical learning profiles, such as those with ADHD or learning disabilities, that make academic success difficult to achieve without outside assistance. We develop custom strategies that can greatly benefit all students, particularly those struggling with disabilities. SOS coaches collaborate with pediatricians, psychologists, resource teachers and other professionals to ensure that the student's educational needs are being appropriately and effectively addressed.
