School is where you build your foundation.

ADDvocacy Coaching sets you apart — by helping you shape your foundation in your own way.Our team of Academic Coaches specialize in working with students. We coach neurodivergent high school students in Grades 11 & 12, post-secondary students in college and university, and students at the postgraduate level.

We ensure that all learning styles and differences are fully understood, and our Coaches can help you expand your skills, grow with confidence and lay the groundwork for your future.

You’ll build the skills to move forward on your own - as fast as possible.

Most learning doesn’t happen by reading instructions.

Real learning happens when you become inspired, get involved, and build your skill set.

You will remember those learning experiences for life, and we are here to help you create them.

Research has shown that the skills acquired by working with a Coach will last after the coaching process ends.
