School Is SO Much Harder When Your Kid Doesn’t Know How to Learn.
Finally, The Learning System They Should've Been Taught Years Ago.
SchoolHabits University teaches students how to work more efficiently for better grades, through proven systems for studying, organization, and time management. THIS is what they don't teach in school
Your Student is Smart.
So Why is School Still So Hard?
You’ve tried everything—tutors, reminders, late-night lectures—but your teen or college student is still overwhelmed, missing deadlines, or falling short of their potential.
Yes, your kid is smart.
But school doesn’t teach students how to do school. And that’s exactly what your student is missing.
Reality: Kids With LEARNING SKILLS Get Further Than Kids Who Wing It.
Don’t let your kid struggle alone. They matter way too much.
When your child goes through school without knowing how to do school, they start believing they’re the problem, that they’re not smart enough.
▶ These beliefs ruin their confidence and their motivation, which impacts their grades, college prospects, and career.
▶ They take fewer academic risks, which gives them fewer opportunities.
▶ They dream smaller, believing that they’re not capable of doing big things.
This is the last thing we want for our kids. We want them to thrive, be independent, and go after whatever they dream of. They deserve that.
Not Knowing How to Do School Has a Financial Cost Too…
SchoolHabits University costs a fraction of any of these—and prevents all of them.
It’s Not Your Fault. It’s Not Your Young Adult’s Fault Either.
You WANT to support your kid in school, but don’t know how. What our kids are facing in the classroom is SO much different than what we had to deal with!
The effects of the pandemic, growing mental health concerns, and phones (yep, I said it) have created a perfect storm. School is harder than ever, and our kids were never taught how to handle it.
SchoolHabits University teaches the exact systems and skills schools don't, which is the single best investment you can make in your child's education.
Are You Thinking…
“I’ve tried everything possible to help my teen with school, but nothing is working.”
“My kid has SO much potential, but they just can’t seem to figure out what to do.”
“My young adult is smart but their grades don’t reflect that at all — and they’re stuck.”
But What If I Told You:
Your kid CAN improve their motivation for school by building skills first
Your kid CAN learn how to take notes that make sense
Your kid CAN remember what they study so they can use it on the test
Your kid CAN create a simple system to manage their time and tasks so you can stop nagging
All of this is possible. And the best part is that it doesn’t require any more work. It just requires doing something DIFFERENT than what your young adult is doing now.
This is the EXACT blueprint that teaches students HOW to do school.
It’s a self-paced online program that teaches students how to study smarter, manage their time, and get organized with real, practical systems that work.
(And no, it doesn’t feel like school.)
How It Works
STEP 1: ENROLL TODAY
Get immediate access to the full program, bonuses, and Q&A library.
STEP 2: FOLLOW THE SYSTEM
Your student follows the step-by-step video lessons at their own pace.
STEP 3: SEE THE CHANGE
Less stress, better grades, and total confidence to excel in school and beyond.
BEFORE
“There were tears in our house nearly every day. Either mine or my teen’s. I didn’t see what the big deal was — why couldn’t they just DO the work?!”
AFTER
“It feels too good to be true, but we haven’t had a fight about homework in weeks.”
Who It’s For
SchoolHabits University works for any student age 12+ who needs better academic systems—from honors students feeling overwhelmed to struggling students who've tried everything else.
THE OVERWHELMED ACHIEVER
Your student is capable but drowning. They have missing assignments, last-minute cramming, and grades that don't match their high potential.
THE “UNMOTIVATED” STUDENT
Your student seems lazy but they're actually overwhelmed, shutting down, and avoiding work because they don't know where to begin.
THE DIFFERENT LEARNER
ADHD or executive dysfunction makes school harder, and traditional methods don’t work. They need systems designed for their unique brains.
By The End of This Program, Your Young Adult Will Have…
Built a task management system
that genuinely helps them stay on top of homework, long-term projects, and life admin without falling behind.
Learned real time management and calendar skills
so they can stop procrastinating, plan ahead, and take control of their schedule.
Mastered expert note-taking methods
for lectures, videos, textbooks, and slides—so their notes truly help them study.
Learned study methods that work
like the FOMSO Study Framework—so they can study less, learn more, and remember it when it counts.
Nailed the skill of annotating
complex texts like academic articles and novels, so they can read with purpose and understand what matters.
Set up simple organization systems
for papers, digital files, and emails—so they always know where things are when they need them.
AND, By The End of This Program, YOU Will Have…
The peace of mind knowing that you’ve given your young adult the greatest advantage possible: self-awareness, confidence, and the skills to succeed in school, career and life.
BEFORE
“I’d ask my daughter every single day, ‘What can I do to help you? I want to help!’ But she always said everything was fine. It was NOT fine.”
AFTER
“As soon as I stepped out of the picture and she turned to the program instead, I wasn’t the bad guy anymore. That’s what we needed.”

Success Stories
Did You Know? Being "Good at School" Comes Down to Just 6 Skills
Most parents never realize that academic success comes down to mastering 6 specific skill areas that work together like gears in a machine.
The 6 Core Academic Skills:
Assignment Management | Time Management | Note-Taking | Annotating | Study Methods | Organization Systems
When just one skill is weak, the entire system collapses. And if your student hasn’t mastered these skills yet, school's only going to get harder as the workload increases.
←
Every skill in the “machine” has to be solid. If not, the machine doesn’t work.
That’s why I created my proprietary Academic Skills Self-Assessment
This comprehensive study skills and executive function assessment helps your student learn their skill strengths and weaknesses, so they can better understand their learning tendencies and navigate SchoolHabits University with intention.
After 20 years of working with over 3,000 students, I've created a comprehensive academic skills assessment (70+ pages!) that reveals:
Which of the 6 academic skills your child has mastered (and which ones they haven't)
Their unique Executive Function Profile (why certain tasks feel impossible)
A roadmap showing exactly which parts of the course to focus on first
Results explanations and strategies for all 6 academic skills and 6 unique executive function profiles
Every SchoolHabits University student starts here…
…because you can’t address a problem without knowing what it is.

These resources give you total peace of mind that you’ll know exactly how to support your teen’s use of the program. You’ll learn why smart students sometimes resist structured help, what to say (and not say), and simple step-by-step ways to create buy-in without nagging, bribing, or filling your home with more arguments about school.
Your role isn’t to teach the material — that’s my job. Your role is simply to set the conditions for your teen to engage with the course. The Parent Support Bundle shows you exactly how.
When you enroll your student in SchoolHabits University, you get instant access to my ultimate Parent Support Bundle.
Wondering how long it takes to get through the program, or worried that your kid needs a more structured approach?
I get it. That’s why I also provide 3 course completion calendars so your student can choose to complete the program in 30 days, 60 days or 90 days. You get lifetime access and there’s no rush to finish, but some students (and parents) need this kind of structure.
You also get my Parent Support Guide, a complete how-to manual for getting your teen to actually do the course you’re enrolling them in (without bribing or begging).
Buy-in is everything. I know this. And if you have even a whisper of a feeling that your kid won’t get through SchoolHabits University, then they may never get the chance to do so (because you’ll be reluctant to enroll them). Let me eliminate that fear and bring you peace of mind with my Parent Support Guide.
What’s Included:
In this robust 26-minute parent training, I show you exactly what resistance might look like, why even smart kids push back against structured help, and what you can do to break through it. You’ll come away with clear, practical strategies for creating buy-in, plus the reassurance that you don’t have to “be the teacher.” My role is to do the teaching; this video shows you what your role can be so you feel confident and supported every step of the way. Both video and audio-only versions are included.
You also get my Parent Support Training Video, a complete training so you know exactly how to use SchoolHabits University with your student.

BEFORE
“It was tricky because our son’s grades were fine. So we thought everything was okay. But he was spending twice as long studying to get those grades as his friends were, so he was chronically maxed out and exhausted.”
AFTER
“We were right. Our son is so smart, but he wasn’t studying the right way. (Who knew there was a right way?!) Now his grades are just as good but he’s less stressed out and isn’t doing everything at the last minute.”

It’s recommended that you proceed through the program in chronological order, but there is no set time frame you’re expected to complete the program by.

No. This course is not to be used as an evaluative tool, medical intervention, or diagnostic tool in any way.

If you’re thinking, “This sounds amazing but I’m still not sure …” then keep reading…
You just want your young adult to be okay.
You’ve watched them race from one assignment to the next with no room to breathe — always behind, always exhausted. You know they’re capable, but school feels like a constant battle. SchoolHabits University gives them the tools to take control of their time, their workload, and their peace of mind .. because your piece of mind matters too.
You know they’re capable of more, but something’s just off.
School didn’t always feel this hard. But now the workload is heavier, the expectations are higher—and you’re stuck wondering what changed. They put in the effort. They care. But they’re stuck. It’s not about intelligence — it’s about skills. SHU teaches them how to study, manage their time and tasks, and get organized — the exact skills that unlock the success they’re working so hard for.
You’re thinking long-term, not just about the next test.
Yes, this course is an investment. But this program isn’t about shortcuts. It’s about giving your child the lifelong tools they’ll need to succeed in high school, college, and beyond. Time management, real study methods, executive functioning strategies — the same skills that lead to academic success are the ones that shape confident adults.
Still on the Fence?
Investing in something new—especially for your student—can feel risky. You might be wondering: Will this actually help? Will they even use it? What if they just keep doing what they’re doing and things get worse?
But if you’re here, reading this far, you probably already know what’s not working. You’ve tried the reminders, the tutors, the pep talks. And your student is still stressed, disorganized, and falling short of their potential.
Now imagine what school could look like just 30 days from now…
Your student is managing their time.
Their notes are clear and their calendar makes sense.
They’re not procrastinating every assignment.
They feel more confident.
You have the peace of mind knowing that they’ll be okay.
This isn’t wishful thinking. This is what happens when students learn the skills that school never taught them. And that transformation? It starts the day you enroll.
I know that figuring out the best way to support your young adult is stressing you out.

These skills are timeless, invaluable, and the key to unlocking your full academic (and professional!) potential …
As an educator for 20 years, I have taught the skills, systems and methods you find inside SchoolHabits University to thousands of students. Despite a temporary universal global shift to online learning in 2020, ever-changing curriculums, and evolving technologies, the school skills and study frameworks I teach have remained relevant and steady.
Learning content is hard enough. Being a high school and college student is hard enough…
But the key to making your entire academic experience less stressful and more successful is having the right skills, strategies, and systems in place.
I have seen these skills, systems and study methods literally change lives. They can change yours. I’m aware of how “grand” that sounds, but it’s why I do what I do.
If you’ve ever wondered how the “smart” kids seem to get good grades effortlessly, while you’re struggling to pull off the bare minimum … OR if you’re one of the “smart” students with good grades but it’s coming at too high a cost (stress, poor sleep, overwhelm), then it’s time you invested in yourself.
SchoolHabits University, my friend, is the real deal. Will you have to put in the work? Yep. But everything you want for yourself is on the other side of these 6 modules. What do you have to lose?
