Stress Less, Learn More: Strategies to Empower Your Anxious Student for a Smoother School Year
As students head back to school, many parents face the challenge of supporting their children through the anxiety that often accompanies academic demands. Anxious feelings can significantly disrupt a student’s executive functioning skills, leading to disorganization and struggles with focus and time management. But it doesn’t have to be that way!
In this free virtual event on Sept. 13 at 2 PM ET, Educational Connections’ Founder and President Ann Dolin, M.Ed., and Executive Function Coach Rachael Moss, MS, M.Ed., will share strategies to help your child manage their school-related stress and improve their overall academic experience.
This discussion will focus on strategies to mitigate anxious feelings surrounding school— not as a diagnostic tool but as a means to empower students and parents alike.
Join us for Ann and Rachael’s insights on:
✓ How anxiety manifests in students, from inconsistent performance to physical symptoms
✓ Practical strategies to ease test anxiety, including Spaced Practice and the Stoplight Study Guide
✓ Strategies to help your child identify and talk about their anxious feelings through the Name & Notice method
✓ How to use the timers to combat hyper fixation and avoidance in schoolwork.
✓ The role of executive functioning skill building in providing students with the tools they need to succeed academically

College Insider Insights: What Your 11th Grader Should Do Now to Stand Out in the Admissions Process
It’s go time for high school juniors! This is an important year ahead for boosting success with college admissions. And if you’ve ever wondered how college admissions offices decide who should move forward, you’re in luck!
Educational Connections College Consultant Kristin Landis, J.D., and Founder & President Ann Dolin. M.Ed. are here to help families with 11th graders feel more confident as they prepare for college admissions.
Before joining Educational Connections, Kristin spent years reviewing thousands of student applications in the University of Virginia (UVA) admissions office. Now, she works one-on-one with students like yours to help them create standout applications.
During this free workshop for students and parents, Kristin and Ann will share:
The application strategy your student needs to set themselves apart from the crowded (and highly qualified!) applicant pool
How juniors can maximize this school year by building a memorable narrative to share with colleges
Common questions about the Common App, essays, and the pros and cons of applying early
The changing role of the SAT and ACT in the admissions cycle (and important changes to both tests that your child needs to know about)
If your family wants to understand what matters for standing out in today’s competitive college landscape, we hope you will join us!
You must register in advance to attend. We will record the workshop and send the replay to everyone who registers.
