Succeed in the
​Real World.

Students aren't being prepared for life after school.

That's where we come in!

Parents expect school to teach students the skills necessary to be successful in work and college. Instead, school focuses on teaching (often outdated) ​knowledge and doesn't emphasize basic academic and "adulting" skills like:
  • Self-motivation
  • Time management
  • Organization
  • Work ethic
  • Character
​
Here's how it works after you schedule an initial consultation:
  1. We meet with the student and determine their habits, strengths, and weaknesses.
  2. We help students set goals together and develop a plan to achieve those goals.
  3. We meet regularly on their schedule and as often as they need so that they attain their goals!
"​I have learned to be more organized and focused during school."
​- Matt (9th Grade)
Picture
"I'm more focused, I work harder, plan better, and procrastinate less!"
- Becca (12th Grade)

I’m so thankful that my friend shared Ay to Zee with me! The coach helped my daughter with her college applications (yes she is a procrastinator) and have always been responsive and very helpful. Honestly all students would benefit from meeting with a coach! I wish they had been around for my older children!

Scheduling appointments is easy, can be done totally online, and completely around students' schedules! Mr. McManus helped my son catch up with work he missed and get back on track. Ay to Zee is more than tutoring; it shifts their mentality so that students buy into their own improvement.

​I think Ay to Zee is phenomenal! James has a way of communicating with teens that gets through! Unlike us parents who don’t really know anything... 😳😉
