When it comes to helping students develop essential executive functioning skills like planning, prioritization, organization, time management, and more, there are a lot of resources out there. But how will parents know which to choose, what’s important, and who to trust? That’s where our team of highly trained EF coaches come in.
We get to know students on an individual level, assess strengths and weaknesses, understand their goals, propose tailored plans to meet their needs, and work with them one-on-one until those objectives are met. Our specialized coaches utilize the latest research and teaching methods to bring out the best in students and share tips and techniques with parents to use at home. To make things even easier for families, we’ve collected some of our recent executive functioning resources here, in one spot.
