You want to know that your child is thriving in college in all aspects of their life: academically, socially, and personally. We know that the transition into college life can raise a lot of questions for parents. We’ve compiled a list of the most common questions parents ask our Director of Academic Coaching, Kimberly Tierney, about academic coaching, executive functioning, and how we support students. 

Once the initial excitement has worn off, many students find themselves overwhelmed with their classwork, homework, and complicated schedules. Adjusting to the planning and time management demands of college can be difficult and frustrating. At Tierney Education, our coaches help you feel confident and in control of your academic success! Our goal is to help you build the skills you need to do it all on your own. 

At Tierney Education, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, meaningful support to students. Over the years, we've refined our approach to ensure our tutoring services not only help students improve academically but also foster skills that lead to long-term success. One of our key policies is that we don’t accept new tutoring clients after Week 10 of a standard semester.

One of the fundamental principles I've taken from the classroom to opening Tierney Education is the importance of student buy-in. This isn't just about students showing up for sessions; it's about them actively engaging and taking responsibility for their own learning journey.
