An education consultant helps and assists parents of troubled
teens find the right school. Educational consultants
offer a wide variety of professional services to help
you find the best school for your teens and charge
fees to develop an education plan for
your teen. A good education consultant is one that encourages
students and offers parents peace of mind. This only works if the
consultant is on side of the parent and the child.
They have the experience of working effectively with
students and families, building a database of knowledge in the wide
range of options available to students, and establishing
a professional platform.
Education consultants often work as part of a treatment
team in conjunction with therapists, and can also
serve as a support for parents. Education consultants
look beyond the current placement and assist in planning
for your boy or girls's continued progress. Specializing
in educational planning for boarding school, college,
and graduate school. Education consultants are experienced
in matching a child's needs with the strengths of
schools and programs. They save parents money by helping
them avoid common mistakes. All the work is done on
behalf of the parents & the child.
There are many types of programs available, and some of these programs
are very helpful but others simply do not provide the help that adolescents need
to grow, learn and feel good about themselves. The process
of choosing and applying can be discouraging, given
the variety of choice and range of competitiveness
of education. Consultants can guide families through
the details of the admissions process and save them a significant
amount of time in researching schools.
In the absence of appropriate supervision and healthy
self-esteem, students are dropping out of school,
bonding with other kids who have problems, turning
to drugs, and becoming involved in unsafe activities
that feel more rewarding and worthwhile. In these
cases we take the help of an educational consultant.
The educational consultant will be able to take important
steps towards finding a path for your boy or girl, your family
and yourself. This is very healthy in developing a
team approach between the school and parents in helping
their child.
The first task of the education consultant is to
understand the abilities, preferences and goals of
the student. The second task is to determine the most
appropriate training program for the student. The
third task is to assemble the education and training
path for the student. The fourth task is to monitor
the student's progress during his or her education to
see if the student is successful, still on target
or has changed their priorities.
The purpose of educational consultants are:
• To provide parents with an objective evaluation,
guidance, information, and support to address their
adolescent's behavioral, educational, emotional, legal,
psychological and/or substance abuse challenges.
• To evaluate and develop a plan to address
all concerns about the adolescent's specific needs.
• To help parents evaluate, find and interview
programs, schools or treatment centers that will address
their adolescent's needs.
• To help parents ensure the program, school
or treatment center is appropriate for their adolescent.
• To advocate, monitor and support the parents
and their adolescent with the program and their staff.
Education consultants can concentrate on what is
best for your teen and provide you with objective
options. Deciding on a particular program or school
is difficult, and a professional can help. Parents
must determine their own goals and realistic goals
for their teen. They will guide you through this challenging
and often complicated period to help you make the
best decision for you and your family.
At Abundant Life Academy we respect the educational
consultant. However, when we say we respect the educational
consultant, we are only referring to the Christ-centered
educational consultant. We don't want to alarm you,
but most educational consultants practice humanism.
Meaning, they deny God and His power, and place the
power within the human mind and heart. They corporately
deny Christ, and exalt man's innate ability to heal
thyself.

When we speak of Christ-centered educational consultants we mean professional educators who have a tremendous knowledge and understanding of God's Word. There faith is not in man's wisdom, but in God alone. These people are extraordinary people, gifted, and trained. When submitted to God's will, seeking the Glory only for God, then miracles happen. At Abundant Life Academy we encourage all parents to hire a Christ-centered educational consultant to help facilitate the search of the perfect school or program for their child.
Most educational consultants will broadcast their position on Jesus right off the get go. Their web site will declare Jesus as Lord. If they don't openly and honestly express their faith, then perhaps you have not found the right consultant, and your search continues. At Abundant Life Academy we can refer several Christ-centered, God fearing, professional educational consultants who will serve you with the Love of God.
