BURLINGTON, Vt., April 20, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As millions of college students abruptly returned home from campus this spring and moved into online learning environments the lack of appropriate support for students, especially students with ADHD, executive functioning challenges, those with learning disabilities or diverse learners, was illuminated. In addition, international students have also faced unique challenges in this transition, and many students of all kinds now have difficulty accessing support structures. In response, Dr. Perry LaRoque, author of Taking Flight: College for Students with Disabilities, Diverse Learners, and their Families and Founder of Mansfield Hall, an innovative residential college support program, and his team of educational experts have launched Virtual Hall. Virtual Hall is an online college support platform that brings educational specialists and coaches directly to college students, whether they are at home, in their dorm, or in the community.
"Great education has always been about meeting the needs of a student as they are, not as we want them to be. Virtual Hall is designed to address the individual needs of a student and provide holistic, personalized academic and college life coaching to support their goal completion," says Dr. LaRoque.
This first-of-its-kind college support program is able to provide academic and college life coaching and support to any college student with an internet connection, anywhere across the country. Unique to Virtual Hall, students are not only provided a dedicated team of academic and college life coaches, but they also have access to Virtual Hall's coaching platform via a secure online portal and access to a social network and social events, created exclusively for Virtual Hall students, just like they could expect on a traditional college campus.
