I will help you find the answers you seek within yourself by empowering you, asking open-ended ended questions, and then truly listening. We will focus on the stories you tell yourself and bring awareness to those that serve you, and those that derail you. Our work together will bring you clarity as you find alignment with your truest self. I act as a solid, dependable support system with unconditional belief in my clients. I really believe in my people. Big time. Through this unconditional support, I will help you get “un-stuck” and bring new perspectives to old stories. Together, we will rise above the fray as you continue your path toward authenticity and clear decision-making. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6095a7ad2f2c3206e12b2e4c/1357f3d9-64bc-42ca-a78a-990b7535d9b4/holly-mandarich-bMog4gpujsI-unsplash.jpg About - Who are my students? My students are teens and young adults who are navigating uncertainty during transitional times. I work with high school students who are motivated to improve their lives through academic coaching, and I specialize in working with students who have learning differences. https://www.treetopcoaching.org/testimonials daily 0.75 2024-11-28 https://www.treetopcoaching.org/contact-us daily 0.75 2023-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6095a7ad2f2c3206e12b2e4c/7fdeb3f9-a306-45eb-8244-8d84c91c17b0/Treetop_Monograms2.png https://www.treetopcoaching.org/about-elena daily 0.75 2024-11-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6095a7ad2f2c3206e12b2e4c/179fb91d-b3a5-4d4b-b941-9a09fc625ec2/Coaching+Headshot.jpeg About Elena - Elena Zifkin | Founder & Coach Elena began tutoring in 2014 as an editor in the Williams College Essay Center, and has been an independent college prep tutor since 2018. She knows test prep and application essays aren’t always fun, so she makes sure to connect on a personal level with her students to make them feel truly seen, heard, and supported. She wants her students to walk away from each session feeling happy and confident — like they just spent time learning something new from a good friend. She received her BA in Sociology from Williams College, and she later earned her Certified Professional Coach (CPC) certification in adolescent coaching from the Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC). She is also a certified yoga instructor who is skilled in mindfulness and stress reduction strategies. When she is not with her students, she loves to be outside. She is currently a mentor for Explore Austin, where she works with a group of teen girls from 6th to 12th grade as they navigate the outdoors. Through guided outdoor activities, she helps teens strengthen their capacity for comfort in new environments. https://www.treetopcoaching.org/faqs daily 0.75 2024-11-28
