Need some help finding a better word for this sentece...

[Mears]

I work as a tutor for the athletic department at MSU, and one of the lines I used to describe it was this:

Promoted good time management and study skills to help develop the athletes into independent learners

I need another word for promoted. I already used it above, and for some reason I can't think of anything else.
