Academic coaching

giving you an academic workout

Learning in universities, colleges or any higher institution is hard work and sometimes you feel like you are on your own. For undergraduates, many of the skills you need are not overtly taught. You are just expected to acquire them. Sometimes this can be confusing and lonely work.

For postgraduates, you might now have a supervisor. They can be super busy, expect you to work a lot on your own, or just plain not good at explaining things. (Academics aren’t trained communicators and few have teaching qualifications!) So this is where Prof Partout comes in. He can help achieve your academic goals—from the long term ones like getting a higher degree, the shorter term ones—finishing a course, or the pressing ones like finishing that assignment/paper!
