Part Time On-site

Rate: $24.00 USD per hour Monmouth University Main Campus West Long Branch, NJ Monmouth University is seeking applications for part-time Academic Coaches in the Tutoring Services department.

Academic Coaches are faculty members with strong teaching backgrounds and knowledge of study strategies and learning styles. They provide a comprehensive service for students who want to improve their academic and self-management skills, such as time management, organization, and study skills. Tutoring Services at Monmouth University offers this support to help students achieve their academic goals along with self-advocacy and independent, life-long learning.

During 1:1 sessions, coaches will review the content and structure of each individual coaching session and, in collaboration with the student, determine a plan. Additionally, the coach will identify the student's unique learning strengths, using the CSI (College Student Inventory for First Year students) and other tools to develop individual plans for academic support and promote self-confidence and independence.

Academic coaches will help first-year students to learn how to use syllabi effectively and learn how to manage their schedules to accommodate such things as classes, work, etc. They will coach students through the obstacles that arise at any point and help students create positive, effective habits that lead to academic and professional success.

This is an in-person, on campus, non-remote position.
