Executive Function or 'self-management skills', involve working memory, cognitive flexibility and inhibitory control or self-control. Working effectively, these function as a powerful decision-making engine that we use to set goals, make plans, and complete tasks.

These skills are fundamental for academic success and effective daily management. When too many of these issues related to low executive function pile up, they can cascade into larger problems for a student, impacting both academic performance and overall well-being. Executive Function Coaching can be critical in preventing these potentially long-term consequences.

Executive Function Coaching is an educational approach that focuses on strengthening key mental skills necessary for organizing, planning, strategizing, remembering details, and managing time and space. Our expert Executive Function Coaches develop a comprehensive approach, tailored to each student's needs, motivations, and goals in order to unlock self-management skills

Parents and guardians play a crucial role in recognizing areas where a student is having trouble. For example, a student struggling with time management may repeatedly underestimate the time needed for homework, they may fall behind on assignments, or find themselves cramming for tests at the last minute.

By identifying and addressing skills like: organization, time management, prioritization, self-monitoring, task initiation, self monitoring, and flexibility, Executive Function Coaching helps students improve their academic performance, manage stress, and build a skills foundation for lifelong success.
