Wise Student Success Sundays
Plan, Network, Celebrate
Success Sundays are innovative, live, interactive meetings for middle school, high school, and college students which take place every Sunday at 5:00 PM Pacific Time.
Students gain:
Practical techniques for time management, executive functioning, and student/parent/teacher communication
A plan for the week ahead through small group and individualized feedback
Confidence and networking skills through lively discussion about pressing academic topics with their peers facilitated by a professional
For the first thirty minutes, I coach students through the weekly planning session. In their planners or online calendars, students schedule important academic and personal responsibilities plus weekend study hours for the coming week. Students build the helpful habits of time management and prioritization as they prepare for the week ahead.
The second half of the meeting focuses on a lively discussion topic relevant to student life. The motivating, encouraging, and secure environment of the live forum allows group members to share ideas, learn from each other, and come away with action items to focus on for the week ahead.
Together, the Wise Student 101 online course and weekly Sunday meetings create a system that cannot be found anywhere else, with the answers that all students need and an ecosystem that can always be accessed for continued success.
Weekly meetings take place via Zoom throughout the school year. Students have the option of participating with their cameras on or they can choose to keep them off for privacy and still have voice capability and use of chat features.
Video recordings will be available if a student has to miss a week. You can subscribe to the meeting series for $77 per month.

TESTIMONIALS
Maximize time.
“Attending Penny’s Sunday meetings has really helped me plan my weeks and weekends and maximize my free time. When I organize my upcoming important events and goals, I feel more relaxed and well-rounded as a person and a student.”

Peace of mind.
“Balancing the life of a highschooler with their extracurricular activities and studies can be overwhelming. Penny helped our daughter break it down into manageable components that gives her piece of mind and keeps the stress level down at home. Our daughter participates in Penny’s weekly Sunday online sessions which is a valuable tool to start the week off right. Taking time to plan the following week’s schedule helps to stay on target and use time efficiently.”

Hello, self-confidence.
“Wise Student has impacted my organizational skills tremendously. Every meeting that has taken place is one more step towards success. Our Sunday meetings are fantastic! They help me gain control of my week one assignment or test at a time. They have brought my self-confidence back to the arena. I now feel prepared for any obstacle in the coming weeks!”

Bolstering maturity.
“I highly recommend the Sunday coaching sessions! As the mother of a 16 year old son, I can honestly say it feels wonderful to step aside and let someone else ‘take the wheel’ and hold him accountable for his weekly academic deadlines. The ease of joining the online sessions, as well as how informative the discussions are, make these meetings an absolute MUST! After just a few weeks into the program, I can see how much my son looks forward to joining every Sunday night and also how he tackles his vigorous academic schedule with more maturity.”
