Rebecca Field Consulting works with families for a minimum of one semester at a time. We do this because we know that students need at least this amount of time to develop the academic, time management, and self-advocacy skills necessary to continue on without the assistance of a coach. Most clients of Rebecca Field Consulting work with a coach beyond the first semester and for an average of one and a half academic years. Sessions take place in Rebecca Field Consulting's Oakland office or virtually using Google Hangouts or Facetime.

Basic Coaching is the perfect option for those students who are motivated to succeed and recognize that they need additional support when it comes to organization, goal setting and prioritization, and follow through. This option is for students who can set goals, are willing to learn how to navigate and use the services available to them on the college campus, but need help with follow through. Choosing this option, students and parents receive:

• One weekly meeting with a coach at Rebecca Field Consulting's Oakland office or online using Google Hangouts, Facetime, or Skype
• In-depth summaries written to the parents and student after each meeting
• A list of action items for student to complete after each meeting
• Monthly phone call to parents for check-in as needed

Students choosing this more supportive option want to succeed and understand that they need more support with goal setting and follow through. They have some understanding of the supports available on a college campus, but need help in accessing these. Choosing this option students and parents receive double the support of the Basic Coaching:

• Two weekly meetings with a coach at Rebecca Field Consulting's Oakland office or using Google Hangouts, Facetime, or Skype
• In-depth summaries written to the parents and student after each meeting
• A list of action items for student to complete after each meeting
• Monthly phone call to parents for check-in
• Text and phone availability

Sometimes it's difficult to know how much support a student will need. The Tiered option allows families to combine both Basic and Premium Coaching options to correspond with student need and school semesters.

With Tiered Coaching, a student can start off the first semester with the more supportive services of Premium Coaching, and second semester when they feel more confident move to Basic Coaching to continue to keep on track . Students may also choose to reverse this and move from the Basic Coaching option to the Premium. However in our experience, we find that it's always a more successful strategy for students to start off with more support and reduce it over time than to add more support when they begin to struggle. As with the Basic and Premium options, the Tiered option also requires an academic year commitment.
