If homework is a daily struggle… read this


Hi friend,

Let’s be honest — homework time can feel like the worst part of the day. The reminders, the eye rolls, the “I don’t have any homework!” moments… sound familiar?

This week, I talked with Jessyka Coulter, the founder of ACE Cookie Tutoring, who helps teens (and parents) finally understand why homework battles happen — and how to stop them.

She explained that the real issue usually isn’t motivation or laziness — it’s missing study skills. Kids often don’t know how to learn, so school feels harder than it should. Jessyka’s Love to Learn program and 12 Essential Study Skills teach the tools every student needs for confidence and independence — skills that actually make learning enjoyable again.

She’s also giving away a free resource called The Homework Buster to help you figure out what’s really going on when homework isn’t getting done.

Jessyka also has a Facebook Group, Teaching Teens to Love Learning, a Group for Mamas

Here’s to calmer evenings and kids who actually feel capable (and maybe even excited!) to learn,

Jessyka Coulter's Bio and Links:

Jessyka Coulter is the CEO and Founder of Ace Cookie Tutoring. Her company offers study and executive functioning skills tutoring through her Love to Learn program. She knows most curricula are designed with one particular student in mind who doesn't meet every student's personal learning needs. When tweens, teens, and young adults don't know HOW to learn, they don't enjoy school or learning. When students discover HOW to learn through the 12 study skills Jessyka teaches, they love to learn. This makes school SOOO much better for them (and their parents)! Learning never stops, but it can be tough to start without the right skills.

While study skills are the most important part of Jessyka’s work and make the most difference to teens long-term, she also offers private 1:1 academic tutoring online for the ACT/SAT, proofreading, and tutors all core middle school subjects.

Ask her about her lesson bundles that include content tutoring AND her Love to Learn study skills program.

Hi Reader, If you’ve ever signed up for something hoping it would help… and then left feeling overwhelmed or unseen— I want you to hear this: This summit is different.

Hi Reader, As we wrap up March, I want to come back to something I think more parents need to hear: Self-awareness is a better predictor of long-term success than GPA or test scores. Not because grades don’t matter… …but because life asks for more than knowing how to perform well in school. It asks your teen to: make decisions handle stress adjust when things don’t go as planned And that’s where self-awareness changes everything. So what’s the Return on Investment (ROI) of a self-aware teen?...

Hi Reader, If you're parenting a teen or young adult, you've probably heard it. "I don't know what I want to do." And honestly? My first instinct used to be — okay, they're just avoiding. They don't want to think about it. They'll figure it out eventually. But I kept seeing something else underneath that. Because here's what's actually running through their head: What if I pick wrong? What if I'm not even good at anything? What if I try and everyone watches me fail? So they stall. They go...
