Is your bright, capable student struggling to get organized, get started, or stay on track?
I’m an experienced Executive Function Coach and Academic Tutor. For 17+ years, I’ve worked one-on-one with middle school, high school, college, and graduate students to help them develop the skills they need to manage school with greater confidence and independence.
I work with students who may be capable academically but struggle with:
Organization and time management
Procrastination and task initiation
Planning and prioritizing
Focus and attentional control
Follow-through and completing assignments
Managing overwhelm
Studying and preparing for tests
Long-term projects and deadlines
Creating routines and systems that actually work
Building confidence and independence
I also work with students with ADHD and learning differences.
MY APPROACH
I don't simply sit with a student and make sure the homework gets done. I help students understand how they work best and develop practical strategies they can eventually use on their own.
Depending on the student, a session might involve breaking down a large assignment, creating a realistic plan for the week, organizing a workspace or digital system, developing a study strategy, getting started on a difficult task, or working through the academic material itself.
Because I am also an experienced academic tutor, I can combine executive functioning coaching with hands-on academic support when that's what a student needs.
