Drop-In Tutoring

Academic Coaching
Academic Coaching is a partnership between coach and student that focuses on the process of learning and overcoming individual barriers.
While tutors aim to improve performance in a particular subject area, academic coaches meet with their students at least once weekly to help them:
- Understand their personal learning style
- Connect to campus resources,
- Address specific challenges,
- Build the skills necessary to meet their goals across multiple subject areas.
Academic Coaching is fully customized to the individual student’s needs, guiding them in bolstering their weakness and feeling confidence in their strengths, empowering them to take ownership of their academic success.
If you are interested in receiving Academic Coaching services, please complete the
Request a Coach Form to get started. If you still have questions, please contact Ramona Pontelandolfo by phone at 856-200-4654 or by email at
