As parents, we often encounter concerns and need to make important decisions related to our child’s education. As adults, we may desire to return to school ourselves to enhance our job opportunities, but then find it challenging to balance all or our commitments. Whether you are considering schooling options for yourself or your children, hoping to learn some new time management techniques, seeking math coaching support for your high school student, or desiring to improve some aspect of your schooling at home, our Clear Action coach can help you! Through the repetitive process of asking great questions, trying something new, and reflecting on how that went, our clients often discover what motivates their desire for change, learn to understand their child more fully, and develop action steps that can benefit their child. We offer coaching support in all of these areas:

How can I help my child succeed? What type of school is best for my child? How do I help my child with homework? How do I really know if my child is in the right place? I think my child can’t read, but the school doesn’t believe me- what should I do? Should I homeschool my child?
What about me? How can I complete a professional certification or college degree program while balancing the competing demands of home, school and work?

As students advance through their high school years, their courses can become challenging and overwhelming. This often leads to students and their families experiencing late nights, tense conversations, and undue stress. Donna, with Clear Action, LLC, is here to help.
Because of her background in engineering, education, and parenting, Donna has developed a multifaceted approach to math coaching and is able to address learning challenges and present solutions to math problems from many different angles. In private math coaching sessions, Donna goes beyond the traditional tutoring model by helping your student understand both the content they are learning and why it is important to know this (both for now and in their future). As your student applies specific concepts to everyday problems, they will also develop increased confidence, reduced stress and anxiety, and improved critical thinking skills. Donna can uncover gaps in your student’s understanding and then present tools and techniques designed to help them succeed.
