The Benefits of Academic Coaching

INSTITUTION: The Ohio State University
LEAD PRESENTER: Paul Gregor
SESSION DESCRIPTION: Academic Coaching has been shown to benefit college students by providing one-on-one support in a non-judgmental environment. Part of the allure of academic coaching is that students attend with specific challenges or needs. Less discussed is the interpersonal skills that an academic coach brings to the coaching appointment. In this session, we discuss how academic coaching is the ideal training for instructors in higher education as they seek to build trust with a diverse student body.
