About Me + My Approach

Personalized guidance that builds self assurance, organization and direction — helping students thrive in high school, college and beyond. 

About Me

I know how stressful school and college planning can feel for both students and parents.


I’m Dale Koplik, M.Ed., an Independent Educational Consultant and Certified School Counselor. I help students strengthen organization, planning and self management — the foundation for academic success, confidence and a smooth transition to college — while giving families the reassurance of a clear plan and consistent support.


Guiding students to learn independently, plan thoughtfully and succeed in college is at the heart of my work.


Every student’s path to college is unique. During high school, I explored many campuses before finding my best fit: a medium-sized university near a diverse, vibrant city with supportive faculty and active campus life. That experience showed me how overwhelming the process can feel without direction and inspired me to help students and families move forward with structure and purpose.


I earned my Bachelor of Business Administration in Management and Marketing from the University of Miami — an experience that shaped me intellectually and personally — and my Master of Education in School Counseling from the University of Southern California Rossier School of Education, where I focused on adolescent development and college planning.


My background in academic, social and emotional development, combined with certification as a K–12 School Counselor, allows me to support both student growth and family peace of mind at every step.


You can connect with me on LinkedIn to learn more about my background, professional training and current work.

My Approach

Practical structure. Steady support. Lasting confidence.

My approach combines solution focused counseling, executive function coaching, and structured academic planning to help students build independence through small, consistent progress.


Each student’s goals and challenges are unique, so guidance is always personalized around four key principles:


🎯 Personalized Coaching


Every student is different. I tailor strategies to their learning style, strengths and goals, turning planning into progress and effort into results.


💡 Structured Planning


Clear organization and time management systems help students stay on track, reduce stress and build reliable routines.


📘 Academic & Executive Function Growth


Students strengthen planning, focus and self management — skills that support success in high school, college and life.


🤝 Family Partnership


Open communication keeps parents informed while students grow in independence and confidence. Families see steady progress and fewer last minute struggles.


This strengths based, forward looking approach helps students recognize what’s working, take small, achievable steps, and develop confidence through their own success. Setbacks become learning moments, and structure turns uncertainty into momentum.

What Sets My Approach Apart

Professional expertise grounded in counseling insight and real world school experience.


As a Certified School Counselor, I draw on my background in academic, social and emotional development to guide students with structure and encouragement. My experience in college and career readiness, cross cultural counseling and K–12 education allows me to support students through every stage of their journey.


Whether through Academic Coaching, College Admissions Counseling or College Readiness Coaching, my goal is to help students grow in confidence and independence — and give families peace of mind at every step.
