What is
Learning with a Smile?
Learning with a Smile, LLC is a leading provider of executive functioning coaching across the Capital Region. With over ten years of experience in the counseling and academic coaching fields, I am well placed to help my clients grow and thrive.
I understand that executive functioning skills are necessary during students' academic careers and ultimately, they are predictors of success throughout life. During sessions, students learn strategies to improve problem-solving, communication, organization, time management, study skills, and develop other related skills. Working adults hone these skills as they relate to the workplace as well as daily life.
My individualized strategies and custom-designed resources meet students’ individual needs and allow for growth once current goals are mastered. My team-based approach allows students to find their voice and have a stake in the process, ultimately teaching self-advocacy and boosting communication skills. By including students in the decision-making process, I am able to quickly able to build rapport and trust.
Clients’ comfort is my utmost priority during the coaching process because a feeling of safety ultimately leads to greater success as they learn, practice, and internalize their newly discovered skills. When clients are empowered and motivated, they face unlimited potential.
