Student success is not built in a single appointment. It develops through small, consistent habits and moments of reflection over time. The tools on this page are resources we use in Student Success Coaching to support planning, motivation, accountability, and skill building.

You can use these resources on your own, between coaching appointments, or alongside conversations with a coach. Some are designed to help you organize your time and responsibilities. Others support reflection, goal setting, or navigating challenges that come up during the semester.

There is no right order and no expectation to use everything. Choose what feels useful right now. Come back to this page as your needs change. These tools are here to support you wherever you are in your academic and personal journey.

If you would like help using any of these resources or want support applying them to your specific goals, Student Success Coaching is always here to partner with you.  You can schedule an appointment with a Student Success Coach here.
Academic Resources

Built around the Study Cycle to help you learn more effectively and stay ahead.

These resources follow the proven Study Cycle model and give you step by step tools for each phase of learning. You will find worksheets, planners, and strategies that help you prepare for class, study with purpose, and perform at your best on exams.

Get ready before class so the material makes more sense.

These tools help you quickly scan upcoming readings, slides, or lectures so your brain knows what to look for.  Previewing builds familiarity and reduces stress because class feels more manageable and less overwhelming.

Stay engaged and take better notes during class.

These resources help you stay focused, listen actively, and capture the most important ideas.  You will find note taking and in-class strategies that make it easier to follow lectures and participate confidently.

Lock in learning while it is still fresh.

Review tools help you organize your notes, summarize key concepts, and check your understanding.  This is where short daily review habits turn into long term memory.

Study smarter, not longer.

These resources guide you through effective study strategies like active recall, practice testing, and spaced repetition.  You will also find planners and study session structures that help you stay consistent.

Understand how you learn and adjust your strategy.

This phase is about stepping back and checking your understanding.  You evaluate what you know, spot gaps early, and adjust your study plan before small problems become big ones.  These tools help you build metacognition by reflecting on what is working, what is not, and how to study more effectively moving forward.

You will find self-checks, practice tools, reflection guides, exam autopsies, and strategy planners that help you become a more confident, independent learner.

Create structure that works for you.

These resources help you build simple systems for tracking assignments, managing deadlines, organizing digital and paper materials, and staying on top of responsibilities.

Build habits that keep you moving forward.

These tools focus on motivation, confidence, goal setting, and overcoming avoidance.  You will find mindset worksheets, habit building tools, values exercises, and reflection prompts.

Take care of your brain and body.

These resources help you manage stress, protect your energy, and support your mental health.  You will find stress management tools, sleep supports, burnout prevention strategies, and wellness planning resources.
