Verbal Judo College Consulting encourages a flexibility of mind and spirit for academic and
emotional balance. Students adopt a mindfulness that they can use in any learning situation, be
it a particularly challenging pre-calculus or history class, or even the repeated practice of SAT
reading passages. Mentoring encourages initiative and strives to model accountability,
clear communication, and leadership.
Whether students are applying to college, narrowing a thesis statement or
organizing a time line for a project, they gain valuable skills that make them effective
independent thinkers as well as classroom members.
Our students use their spirits to initiate their own progress, pick up phones
to make inquiries, ask questions of their peers and teachers, arrange study groups, and
complete applications to colleges on site. The tutorial sessions motivate and structure;
the students follow through and create, often making the assignments their
own, and always surpass their own expectations.
With careful structure in place, students know what to do and how to begin.
