• Facilitating virtual one-on-one and small-group coaching sessions to clarify priorities, sustain accountability, and maintain high engagement among student-athletes
• Reviewing progress data from learning platforms to detect disengagement or performance gaps before they escalate
• Taking direct action when a student begins to fall behind — modifying your approach, restoring momentum, and guiding recovery
• Facilitating structured virtual workshops centered on mindset, life skills, and personal development, with active student participation serving as the key success metric
• Establishing trust with each student-athlete so that accountability discussions are received as supportive rather than punitive

• Teaching curriculum or providing academic instruction — students advance through self-directed applications; your role is to ensure engagement and follow-through
• Creating lesson plans, grading assignments, or managing course structures
• Reacting only when students self-report issues — you will analyze data and intervene proactively
• Conducting sessions where students attend without meaningful engagement

Ensure virtual student-athletes remain engaged, continue progressing academically, and develop the life skills necessary for success beyond academic settings.
