An Engaging Workshop About Managing Your Life & Being a Successful Student

Lauren Lowenthal, Academic & Self-Management Coach for Teens, presents an engaging, high impact workshop, offering kids specific methods for doing  schoolwork, managing their time, pursuing academic excellence, and generally raising their game, while still having a life.

 

Kids are taught how to work to a high standard. They are given practical methods for schoolwork, and techniques for achieving excellence through self- awareness, habit-building and a positive internal dialogue. Methods are illustrated and explained in easily digestible detail.

 

The irreverent tone and visually compelling presentation sparks young people to think strategically about taking control of their lives in order to raise their game and succeed at school and in life. They leave the workshop with skills and methods they can put into action, along with surprising new insights that will empower their decision making. 

 

Students are presented with a toolbox of effective academic methods and everyday life skills that enable them to optimize their time, make smart choices, and earn higher grades.

 

 
Workshops are presented over 2 half-day sessions, or in one all-day program.  

 

Workshops can be held in schools, private homes, community centers, religious facilities, clubs, and in association with professional & charitable organizations.  Special programs are available for schools interested in multiple sessions for different grades and classes. 
 
A list of suggested supplies will be provided in advance.
